FROM PLACE MAKING, ARCHITECTURE AND ENGAGEMENT TO FURNITURE AND PRODUCT DESIGN WE APPROACH ALL OUR PROJECTS WITH AMBITION AND COLLABORATION
EDable Architecture are an architectural practice who like to work collaboratively at a wide variety of scales. As such the practice has a sister company PLYable Design whose focus is on furniture, lighting and products, and a service we call VISable Thinking to help visualise complex problems. EDable Architecture enjoy working simultaneously on a diverse range of projects from ‘interesting’ extensions to urban & rural scale masterplanning projects. Through our research and studio teaching links with Newcastle University we also explore system and infrastructure scale thinking. Underpinning this broad spectrum of interests and experience is a belief that design and architecture should be about people – individuals and communities, balancing this against the needs of the planet.
