Approach
Philosophy

FoRM Associates is a London-based design practice that looks holistically at the 'liveability' of 21st century cities, creating places that are better to live in, work in and enjoy.
    We are urbanists in the widest sense, working collaboratively to fuse urban design and landscape architecture with ecology, environmental design, master-planning, architecture, branding, lighting, arts, media and engineering. FoRM delivers aspirational and cohesive responses to complex urban situations by bringing together a range of professional disciplines in effective collaboration.
    Our approach to place making is focused on developing visions for clients and cities that are distinctive, sustainable and functional. Form produces innovative and contemporary design solutions that avoid preconceived styles and instead respond directly to their social and environmental context.

Whether at the scale of urban masterplans or intimate sanctuaries, our design process takes the specific social, cultural and economic factors at play and combines them with sustainable environmental practice. By inviting people to join the process we form new places that embody the values of their inhabitants and users, contribute positively to their urban setting and inject vitality into their city's economy.
    The ultimate success of creating new places depends upon delivering the vision with clarity. FoRM's hallmark lies in its ability to design functional and people orientated public realms that are inspiring both in their design and in reality.
