PUBLIC SECTOR
Arka work in partnership with Murray Russell Architects.
This combination of Architects and Designers allow us to offer a fresh approach to our Clients brief and our design solutions.
What makes our collaboration unusual is that we work in the same studio to ensure that our complementary skills are blended together to achieve richer more mature designs. The result is that our design solutions are more fully considered early in the design process.
