Buro Happold is a practice of problem solvers working in the built and natural environment tackling the hardest issues that are most relevant to buildings, cities and strategic plans.
It was founded in 1976, by Sir Edmund Happold (1930 - 1996) in Bath in the southwest of England when he left Ove Arup and Partners to take up a post at the University of Bath as Professor of Architecture and Engineering Design.
From one small office in a townhouse in Bath, Buro Happold today employs over 1.400 staff and has 52 partners in 29 locations worldwide.
