An insight into 24/Three
Life between buildings: Urban design insights from Lisbon
At 24/Three, we understand the importance of good urban design in creating vibrant, thriving neighbourhoods. Thoughtfully designed streets and public spaces promote wellbeing, enhance safety, and make wayfinding intuitive. Streets, plazas, and parks become active, inviting places where people feel comfortable lingering, connecting, and moving through the city.
Stability through client selection
For the creative industry, and beyond, opportunity lies with selecting the clients you work with. We’ve shifted focus to larger clients because they’re forecasting 3-5 years down the line. They can’t stop, because if they stop they don’t have a pipeline - it gives growth a bit more security. It’s not just one project, it’s multiple with these clients.
Confessions of a BIM Manager: The ArchiCAD template Odyssey
If you ever want to test your patience, resilience, and belief in the goodness of humanity, try building an Archicad Template from scratch. Not tweaking one. Not updating one. Building one - a pure, untouched, mythical “Base Template” that will (hopefully) solve all modelling issues from now until the end of time.
Beyond bricks and mortar
Architecture is more than just designing buildings. It is about shaping spaces that improve lives. From comfort and community to sustainability and long-term value, good design adds benefits that go far beyond bricks and mortar.

Murder mystery at the Abbey

Global architecture: How culture inspires design around the world

From burnout to belonging: How an office culture saved my career
After seven years of study and nearly a decade in the industry, I was a fully qualified architect, ready to quit. My past experiences left me drained, frustrated, and burnt out. But just as I was preparing to leave for good, I found the 24/Three family, and everything changed.

24/Three unveils a bold rebrand, reflecting its evolving practice and vision
Our rebrand wasn’t just about a new logo or colour palette. It was about reflecting who we truly are, a studio shaped by collaboration, curiosity and culture. As 24/Three has grown, so has our voice, and we wanted our brand to feel more aligned with the way we work and the people behind it. It is confident without being corporate, creative without being confusing, and most importantly, it feels like us.
24/Three moves into a new office at Huddlestones Wharf

It is not just about having a place to work, but a place to connect, create and continue doing what we love.
