BVN is a creative collective of architects, designers, researchers and makers. We’re Australian at heart, with international studios and a global outlook. We’re inspired by problems and bold about solutions. We embrace advancements in technology and make space for the exploration of new ideas. We’re continually improving, always evolving, and optimistic about the future.

We have studios in Sydney, Brisbane, London and New York. Wherever we are, you will find us open and progressive, with a curious mind about how the world fits together. Our approach to the way we work recognizes we cannot operate alone. We collaborate closely with each other, our colleagues in other studios, our industry peers, consultants and clients. Together we create sustainable buildings and impactful places that consistently exceed expectations. And, design a better future.
