Copenhagen

  • What began as a love affair with all things Scandinavian has now become a permanent base for Morris+Company in Copenhagen. Like Londonon, the opening of our Copenhagen studio is a response to the narrowing horizons of Brexit, representing a natural progression of our thinking and an opportunity to expand and diversify outside the UK.

    The office is led by Edward Blake and Terese Viltoft, long-standing members of the London company with strong connections to the region. In the spirit of our view that architecture is a shared endeavour, they work in collaboration with local architects on projects throughout Scandinavia, with a specific focus on broadening and enriching the Morris+Company methodology.

    Collaborations

  • Every building is the work of many hands, an extended company of makers and thinkers, funders and facilitators, owners and users.

    These are just a selection of Morris+Company’s closest collaborators.

    Londonon

  • Morris+Company is a founder member of Londonon, a rolling research and residency programme run by a collective of London-based architects and creatives. With the triggering of Article 50 in March 2017 and the UK’s withdrawal from the European Union, Londonon marks this critical juncture in our cultural identity by looking outward to learn from, and share stories with, collaborators across the globe.

    The Londonon programme follows the Brexit timetable, with a series of placements for team members in different cities, where they work alongside local practices, educators and policymakers to respond to common urban challenges.

    Londonon is an outlet for Morris+Company’s collaborative approach and networked thinking, and is an apt expression of the optimistic and entrepreneurial spirit our home city represents.

The third lot of the Southwark Council Framework that we have been accepted onto is for large workplace projects (commercial & industrial). "Our interest in the working life of our buildings – how they are loved, lived and worked in – presents us with a very particular challenge when we are commissioned to create a new workplace." David Storring, Director
We are proud to be among a selection of great practices on 3 lots of the Southwark Council Framework, including Education, Social Care and Community projects. "Our work in this sector considers each project as a local catalyst for change that will bring diverse groups of people together, in the very best and the very worst of times, for wellness, learning and culture." Keir Regan-Alexander, Director
We are thrilled to have been selected as a member of the Southwark Council Housing framework team. "In this time more than ever we all appreciate the importance of everyone having an affordable place to call home which supports a healthy life and is integral to our local community and environment." Miranda MacLaren, Director
Joe’s lecture- 'METHODS of Design and Collaboration during Crisis' as part of the Architecture Foundation’s 100 day studio event. "Collaboration isn’t a one size fits all jacket, it is a unisex onesie made of ethically sourced and organic recycled spandex, where arms can be legs, and there is no back or front. It’s malleable, flexible, and can accommodate all shapes and sizes."

Our Future Workplaces David Storrring writes about how in a few short weeks, the enforced quarantine and rapid adoption of remote-working has already revolutionised the culture of our workplaces.
The Power of Remote Collectivism Our new mode of working is certainly not ‘business as usual’ and neither will it be. We have entered an unprecedented period of uncertainty and no one will be immune from the socio-economic impacts of Covid-19 as we adapt to new ways of working and making. Read more click here.
