We operate educational workshops that provide invaluable opportunities to design through collaboration, learn through building and experience through immersion. Our construction workshops aren’t a holiday. They are demanding but immensely rewarding and are a great way to make your world a better place, whilst providing an opportunity for personal development and a stepping stone towards future careers.

We operate both Virtual Design and Physical Construction workshops which, when taken together, offer a wholistic view of the international development infrastructure sector. Participants are taken through a step by step process, learning about the way in which we deliver projects collaboratively before stepping onto site on location to get on the tools and work alongside local end users.

OUR ADDED VALUE

Our process adds value to our projects, and achieves an economical build that also has a big impact.

Well designed buildings, built with integrity to have a lasting impact don’t need to be expensive. Our process not only reduces our client’s risk, cost and timeframe but provides a measurable social, environmental or economic impact. We constantly monitor and evaluate the impact our work has on the communities in which it is situated and consider this highly important to progress towards our vision of quality design that is accessible to all.

REDUCED COST

With more efficiencies throughout the whole process, cost can be greatly reduced. Less requirement for external consultants or sub contractors creates further savings. On charitable development projects, workshop income helps to further reduce professional fees.

REDUCED TIME

Less requirement for communication between different parties reduces time on site (when compared with other procurement methods). Designing of certain elements can happen on site, further reducing time.

REDUCED RISK

With a single point of contact and responsibility, the client’s risk is reduced.

Our combined team experience further reduces the risk.

INCREASED INNOVATION

With a wide network of collaborators inputting ideas and expertise, innovative design and construction solutions are formed.
