As co-founders of Architects Declare, Haworth Tompkins have acknowledged the significant impact buildings have on climate and on global ecosystems. By signing up to the AD declaration points HT have committed to assess and re-think our approach to design. One important aspect of this is the decision to carry out in-house light-touch Post Occupancy Evaluation (POE) studies aiming to identify strengths of completed projects, possible areas for improvement, and further learning for the design team, alongside our clients and consultants. The Everyman Theatre in Liverpool was used as a test case to see how the Practice could embed light-touch Post Occupancy Evaluation (POE)/Building Performance In-Use reporting across our office portfolio. The Everyman was chosen because it uses an innovative assisted natural ventilation system and the design team were keen to understand how well it was working, to inform the design of similar performing spaces.
Haworth Tompkins picked up three awards at last night’s BD Architect of the Year Awards ceremony including the coveted Gold Award for the 'best of the best', as well as winning Best Architect Employer of the Year, and Higher Education Architect of the Year.
