Howells welcomed Olivia Bianco to the practice for her recent placement.

We’re an ambitious group of architects, designers and makers working throughout the UK and internationally. Our work is rooted in collaboration and exploration. We have a diverse team of talented designers working alongside a range of experts to make outstanding projects. Every project is generated from first principles. Our collaborative approach allows us to identify what’s right for the client, the place and the people who will experience it. We’re driven by doing the best work possible and doing the right thing. What we do has an impact beyond our projects and extends to our own community, those we work with and the wider society. We do our best work by sharing ideas and bringing together talented people at all stages of their lives to unlock their creativity. For over 30 years, we have designed low-energy buildings that reduce environmental impact. Our approach to sustainability ensures we minimise carbon emissions on every project and in our studios. We invest in people at all stages of their education and careers. Our Howells Academy is a planned programme where we continually learn from each other and the best experts.
