Practice
CROSBY architects is dedicated to minimising energy consumption and life cycle costs through an integrated approach to architectural and engineering design and the innovative use of materials and technology.
Prospective clients are often unaware that decisions made before the design stage – such as selection of site, the building program and re-use of existing building fabrics – can affect the environment as much as those made during the design stage.
CROSBY architects is skilled at monitoring and controlling all aspects of a project that helps ensure it is delivered on time and within budget.
CROSBY architects has close working relationships with structural and environmental engineers, cost-control consultants and specialist consultants. This knowledge and support helps establish economical structures and practical solutions for complex and sophisticated projects.
CROSBY architects pursues cultural relevance in all its design work and believes that successful design creates vital and integrated places that help bind communities.

Philosophy
Good design is a participatory pursuit, which means rigorous and robust ongoing communication for everyone involved; while its outcome, the completed project, is a built solution that is economical, sustainable, socially responsible and culturally significant.
“The historic rupture between doing and being….is the expression of an essential malaise in modern man and society. The cure for this malaise lies in art: in building, dwelling and thinking.”
Ignasi De Sola-Morales
“…specific conditions are increasingly emerging as the only possible elements on which to base a project.” Vittorio Gregotti
