Quality architecture is years in the making. Research, innovation, and creative development are often unseen until the unveiling of our finished buildings. In 2010 we established Journal; the diary of Bates Smart, opening the doors to our culture, process and everyday innovation. Its role is to facilitate the sharing of knowledge and ignite an ongoing discourse between our people, our clients, our colleagues and the broader public. It is open to anyone who has an interest in architecture and how the discipline of design is shaping our cities. We invite you to join the conversation and visit Journal/ online at http://www.batessmart.com/journal General enquiries: enquiries@batessmart.com Careers enquiries: careers@batessmart.com
