Poroban are designers and makers that work within the realms of architecture, urban design, furniture and installations for the creative arts. We are progressive, inclusive and enjoy collaborating with diverse communities to create exciting spaces and neighbourhoods. We like to work with local suppliers and manufacturers, and encourage a hands-on sustainable and pragmatic approach.
We are also here to combat climate change and seek to inform and educate via a multitude of mediums. Poroban is a signatory of Architects Declare and an advocate for buildings with a low carbon footprint. We are particularly interested in materials of low embodied energy, promoting timber construction, passive environmental control and supporting local skills. If buildings contribute to 40% of total UK greenhouse gas emissions, then we need to be more active in tackling this problem.
Poroban is a promoter of diversity in the construction sector and has committed to the Diverse Leaders Pledge.
