Our Approach
RPA understands that in a constantly evolving world it is important to provide a flexible service which can be exactly modeled to the prescribed requirements of our clients.
We continually seek to deliver professional and well-managed projects which are responsive to their environment, procured on time, and within budget. To achieve this we believe it essential to work in partnership with our clients and other disciplines. We also believe our passion for quality in design, creativity and flexibility adds value for our clients. The starting point for every project at RPA is always to consider the brief alongside the building’s cultural, social and historical context. Putting enormous effort into understanding the nature of the site and the needs of the building’s users, it is only from here that the design, materials and methods will be determined. Working as a team, in close collaboration with clients, consultants, contractors, and all other stakeholders the result is an original and fitting architecture.
RPA is dedicated to designing buildings that acknowledge their impact on the environment. The practice strives to produce environmentally sustainable design, using leading edge technology; adding value through imaginative, innovative and positive design solutions. In this way, the team has successfully delivered affordable housing and private residence projects, commercial spaces and buildings for mixed, cultural and leisure uses.
