Woods Bagot is a global architectural and consulting practice founded in Adelaide, South Australia. However, they are focused on becoming a global studio having multiple offices, one of them being in New York. It specializes in the design and planning of buildings across a wide variety of sectors and disciplines, and they believe in the celebration of diversity across cultures, propelled by a shared sense of empathy where the values of end-users and the values of design are one and the same.
Workshop/APD’s greatest strength lies in the diverse talent and expertise of their multidisciplinary team. They bring global perspectives and vast experience in architecture, interiors, product design, planning, engineering, and branding to projects of every type and scale. Their aesthetic is indefinable because each project is characterized by a unique combination of talents and circumstances that are impossible to recreate; the perfect team, collaborators and consultants, endlessly unique project locations, and client needs and desires. However, their work –obsessively detailed and crafted, inviting and intentional – is unmistakable.
