About the Business
Dan Jones and Andrew Siddall established civic in 2005; an architecture and arts practice concerned with community-led design projects and the advocacy of users' engagement with art and architecture.
We have a strong background in collaborative working between creative disciplines and an ethos of strengthening links between lay stakeholders and the built environment.
A key difference between what civic is practising and more conventionally held ideas about public involvement in the design process, is that our client groups are neither soft partners in the consultation process, nor are they being asked to design their own buildings, rather they are being enabled to lead the design process by their own experiences and from their position as lay people. We call this process demand-led design. This means working with people who stand to gain directly from getting involved in making changes to the places where they live.
