We are ARCHITECTS and CONSULTANTS who believe that GREAT HOUSING supports GREAT LIVING.
Shaping Conversation
Archio started as an idea in an ice cream van, an idea that talking to people makes design better.
That idea was honed in a garage decorated as a disco, where we talked with neighbours about things that really mattered to them. What we heard led to our belief that great housing supports great living.
Archio is now an architecture practice with over a decade of designing housing and neighbourhoods. We continue to love getting stuck into conversations.
What drives us
We’ve made it our business to know our product and know precisely why people love their homes. This has lead to a series of successes, including:
Designing the first ever direct-delivery community land trust housing in London
Delivering the retrofit strategy for the largest council estate in the world
Winning awards for co-design and community engagement
What people say about us
Archio are in the top 50 social housing architects in the world
