Space Syntax provides creative expertise in architecture & urban planning. Operating worldwide, we combine global design experience with advanced digital technologies. Our unique modelling tools forecast the social, economic & environmental impacts of development on mobility, land value & health at all scales. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COMPANY HISTORY Space syntax theory and technology were pioneered in the 1970s and 1980s by Professors Bill Hillier, Julienne Hanson, Alan Penn and colleagues at The Bartlett, University College London. The space syntax approach was conceived to help simulate the likely effects of designs on the people who occupied and moved around in them, be they buildings or urban settlements. It has since grown around the world in a variety of research areas and practical applications.  Space Syntax Limited was established on 17th July 1989 as an architectural consulting company with a mission to apply the space syntax approach in urban planning and design practice. In recent years, the company has established significant capacity in other related business ‘streams’, namely: Studio - acting as design lead on design projects, Research - carrying out funded and unfunded research projects, Training - providing training via online courses, Digital - building software-based planning and design tools and data products.  Space Syntax is a dynamic, growing and purpose-driven organisation, aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. More than ever, the company is committed to making a positive impact in the context of key global challenges relating to public health, climate, ecology and social inequality.

Citizens UK

London

Founded in 1989, we are a single organisation with seventeen Chapters across England and Wales. Our Chapters are led by local people acting together for the common good through the method of Community Organising. The UK has a rich history of people organising for power and change such as the Levellers, the Abolitionists, the Chartists, early trade unionists like the match girls and dock strikers, and the Suffragettes. Our work at Citizens UK is influenced by a heritage which draws on the broad-based organising of our sister organisation, the Industrial Areas Foundation (IAF) and before that the US civil rights movement. Over the last thirty years we have won £1.8bn in additional wages for low paid workers, ended child detention for immigration purposes, secured an amnesty of ‘legacy cases’ for 160,000 asylum applicants as well as winning many victories at the local and regional level. We build power with people so that together we can move from the world as it is toward the world as it should be. Some of our campaigns have spun off into dedicated projects, to create long-term change. The largest and most successful of these teams is the Living Wage Foundation which now accredits a network of over 9,000 employers who pay 300,000 employees the real Living Wage. Others include Parents and Communities Together (PACT) and Sponsor Refugees. We are proud of other social innovations that have successfully spun out to become independent organisations such as Safe Passage, London Community Land Trust and Money Mentors.
