we combine design excellence with expertise in project delivery and we think laterally to find unique solutions to the specific needs of each project
we are committed to making our cities better places to live. To facilitate an enriching and adaptive way of living which is inherently urban but which also connects us to the natural and to each other.
we are innovators always looking for ways to optimise the design and construction process to achieve savings, deliver greater quality, and enhance environmental performance.
we believe in the power of ideas, informed by rigorous analysis, and that through collaboration and discourse, great outcomes are achievable under a shared vision of the future.
we seek an architecture that engages with its urban, social, and historical context. It should be inherently driven by performance, structural legibility, spatial and organisational clarity and it should delight, inspire, and surprise.
we are good listeners who understand that great projects come together through the efforts, energy, and skill of many hands working together toward a common goal.

Urban Creative was formed by Andrew Milward-Bason and Greg Pitts who have over 25 years experience between them, working on award winning projects both here and internationally. In this time they have worked on a wide range of architectural projects, from single dwellings for private clients through multi-dwelling and mixed use development, retail, university buildings, transport and commercial architecture.
Whilst our core focus is on architecture, Urban Creative is fundamentally about making and innovation and we like to get involved at all levels of design. We will soon be launching a new lighting design range called lumen, and will continue to develop and release new designs on an ongoing basis.
Both Greg and Andrew have worked on a number of masterplanning and urban design projects from city blocks to university urban campuses, to re-imagining of whole sections of cities and towns.
Developed in association with Architectus, together with Aspect and EcoHarvest, the Concept Masterplan proposes a new future built around a simple central proposition: Let's work with nature, not against it.

We see this project as a benchmark for harnessing the synergies between living, working, and social spaces - an engine room for driving diversity and regeneration that is inherently urban, but which also connects us to the natural and to each other.

Pete's Pad is a dual occupancy site with a new townhouse inserted behind a heritage listed residence. The design proposes the retention of the generous front yard and renovation of the existing dwelling with a cleverly planned two storey dwelling .

This design celebrates both the connection between two clients as well as their unique qualities. The unified design ties two very different streetscapes together, whilst detailed articulation engages with the street, and yields surprises along the way.

By cleverly utilising natural falls on site, vehicular accommodation is hidden beneath this dual occupancy development, enabling the dwellings to fully engage with the street and take advantage of beautifully framed views.

A huge thanks to all of our Kickstarter backers. Our Homes for Homeless Youth campaign has been successfully funded. We are now pushing on with concept design on one of these new homes.

We have been having a great time working away on a new range of lighting that is now available to order. Initially emerging as a way to improve the lighting in our own studio, the Lumen 01 series is a ribbed plywood luminaire with sleek lines and short-radius turns.
