WHAT WE DO

We’re redoing real estate to be used as a tool for the delivery of social impact.

Chat to us about a building, a portfolio, a development proposal or city strategy and how we can help you with affordable workspace, feasibility analysis, implementing social impact, and your innovation strategy.

Affordable Workspace

Affordable Workspace Operations - using over 10 years experience in operations to help local authorities with design and implementation

Business plan modelling - to support decision making, funding proposals & to demonstrate ROI

Planning Advisory - to support and provide evidence required to secure Planning Permission, or for a new affordable workspace policy

Retail to workspace - analysis to identify under utilised retail assets which could be better used as workspace or other alternatives

New operational vehicles - including joint ventures, ownership, management agreements and accreditation schemes

Capacity building - to support community groups and entrepreneurs to take ownership of assets or support with tender opportunities

Portfolio Advisory

Alternative asset management - with solutions from interim use to the longer term, including feasibility assessment, tenant engagement and curation of uses

Budget conscious refurbishment plans - which uses our experience operating end of life buildings to interrogate traditional refurbishment approaches and identify cost savings

Catalytic investment opportunities - often working with local authorities, to identify sites which could provide scalable social and economic impact

Proactive facilities management - approaches that identify where efficiencies can be made across a portfolio

Bringing Experiences with a Social Impact to buildings

Bringing social impact to buildings - activities and tenant projects which are curated and provide opportunities for local people

Tenant partnerships - which connect tenants and modern purpose-driven businesses with opportunities to support the local community

Curation Agent - which is our version of a Managing Agent, which selects and manages tenants which contribute to economic growth, retaining diversity & facilitating innovation

Reporting on outputs other than rent - by setting strategic objectives and reporting mechanisms for uses which maximise social impact

Placemaking & Innovation

Respectful regeneration - which often starts from the bottom up, and needs a strategy to retain the diversity of tenants. Diversity is what makes cities great and economically attractive

Filling the gaps in master planning - with physical interventions, which could be meanwhile use or longer term, in neighbourhoods of change. These are required to set the tone before rapid development happens.

Keeping up-to-date with worldwide future city trends - which are provocative and can help your team to implement practical approaches that ensure your city is a leader and resilient to change

Providing a platform for Innovation - by using existing under-utilised buildings as test beds for longer term uses

Reducing the environmental Impact of new development - by repurposing existing buildings, which also has placemaking benefits
