Buro Happold orchestrates the future of communities with creative and sustainable solutions

Developing a thriving community is more than just constructing new buildings or laying down roads. The true magic comes from designs that aim to have a positive impact on people - their health, wellbeing, environment, and the economy.

For more than 45 years, integrated consultancy of engineers, consultants, and advisers, Buro Happold has built a world-class reputation for delivering creative solutions for a changing world. The company works with diverse experts in many fields - from engineering and technology to ecology and acoustics - who collaborate and provide support for a variety of building, infrastructure, and environmental projects.

"We all specialize in different areas, but at the end of the day, everyone at Buro Happold is a thinker, creator, and problem solver," says Linaka Greensword, creative lead for projects at Buro Happold. "Everyone aims for creative solutions that support our clients while bringing social value to communities."

When working on a project, consultants incorporate a wide range of ideas, from protecting biodiversity, to considering the effects that pollution or noise may have on people nearby, to sourcing materials for the least amount of environmental impact. It can be difficult to fully convey the importance of such broad ideas to clients. That's where Greensword and her creative team step in. They work with in-house consultants to translate big ideas into visuals that explain complex concepts in easy-to-understand ways.
