Inspiring a life well lived for our community and fostering a better future for our planet through architecture and design
At Studio Prineas we believe in the potential of architecture to have a positive impact on the world and feel strongly that it is our responsibility to wield our influence in a way that supports positive outcomes on both a macro and micro level.
As a Certified B Corporation we acknowledge and take seriously how our work can impact others; this knowledge motivates us and informs our process and decision making.
Values
People
Generosity, kindness, and mutual respect underpin our relationships with clients, collaborators and with each other — defining our approach to business. Seeking more than the transactional, we believe in the importance of shared values and strive to establish long-term and meaningful relationships with all those we work with.
Planet
We recognise our responsibility as architects to act as leaders and instigate change through the way we design, the products we specify, and how we listen, learn and create on Country. We consider environmental responsibility and cultural awareness at the centre of what we do, who we collaborate with, and every single design decision we make along the way.
Participation
Being actively engaged in our wider community is an important part of who we are. We are dedicated to driving our profession forward through our involvement with AIA, NSW ARB, Parlour and Architects Declare. We care for our wider community through our authentic and long-standing involvement with organisations including Two Good and the Indigenous Literacy Foundation.
Sustainability Action Plan
Studio Prineas’ Sustainability Action Plan is a roadmap that documents our current and future practice and processes. We acknowledge the responsibility architects bear in contributing 39% of the global greenhouse gas emissions generated by the building sector.
To address this challenge, the SAP acknowledges the steps our team has already taken toward a more environmentally responsible practice and is a continued commitment to meet carbon neutrality. We approach this SAP with a mindset of Process over Perfection — a statement that recognises and celebrates the steps already taken while acknowledging that we have much to learn and improve on. We look forward to sharing our progress as we create, learn, achieve, and reflect across present and future revisions of this SAP.
