Barr Gazetas named one of The Sunday Times Best Places to Work 2026

Barr Gazetas has been recognised by The Sunday Times as one of the Best Places to Work 2026, celebrating our commitment to creating a workplace where people can thrive.

Built around three core pillars, people, practice and projects, our culture is shaped by collaboration, creativity, continuous learning and wellbeing. We believe that thoughtful, human centred design starts with an environment where people feel supported, empowered and inspired to do their best work.

As an employee owned, B Corp certified practice, our people are at the heart of everything we do. From architects and interior designers to masterplanners and technical specialists, we are committed to creating a workplace where individuals can develop their careers while contributing to meaningful design.

The Sunday Times recognised Barr Gazetas for its employee focused culture, highlighting our employee ownership model, commitment to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, flexible working, professional development opportunities and knowledge sharing initiatives. The publication noted:

"This B Corp certified London architecture practice is an employee ownership trust, which means its 60 staff have a stake in its success. It celebrates Diversity, Equity and Inclusion with events for International Women's Day, Pride, Black History Month and Transgender Day of Visibility, and runs a popular lunchtime genius hour where staff share their knowledge. Flexible hours support a healthy work life balance, and everybody receives in house CPD hours, a £500 annual training budget and a personal development plan."

At Barr Gazetas, we believe the best places are shaped by people. This recognition reflects the culture that underpins our practice and the environment we continue to build together.
