The Big Archi-Chat

Get help and advice to kick start your dream home project and support an incredible charity at the same time.

Fancy a 1:1 consultation with a top architect, landscape architect or designer? 

Azuko is an incredible charity with a dream of a just world, in which every person enjoys the right to dignified living conditions. Led by architect Jo Ashbridge, their mission is to design with disadvantaged communities and empower them to create the world they dream of. The fact is that good design, saves lives but access to that design or the funds to build those designs, for many is out of reach. 736 million people remain in extreme poverty, today. Design can provide solutions to the challenges they face and that’s where Azuko come in. They really are an exceptional charity (and we know because we have met many of the extraordinary people who run it and observe the impact of the ambitious projects they run).

But Azuko need your help to raise vital funds to build a new playground for a primary school in northwest Bangladesh. Those who follow Studio 31 will understand the vital importance of children having a safe outdoor space to play and connect with each other and with nature. Our children have the right to play but for many that right is a privilege. All children deserve that right and we want to help Azuko achieve that goal. 

Whether you are building your dream home, dreaming of your future garden or need some support with graphic design, you can book a 1:1 consultation through their site with a range of super-talented designers. These designers include Jo Ashbridge herself, our Studio 31 Director Edward Flaxman, the very talented architect Amos Goldreich and graphic designer Mark Brookes to name but a few. You donate, you get a consultation with your dream designer and Azuko get to help the people who need it most. 

What’s more 1st-8th December is The Big Give Christmas Challenge. The UK’s largest match funding campaign, which runs from 1-8 December in 2020. AzuKo has been allocated a ‘matching pot’ to double donations made by our supporters. Which means, one donation, twice the impact. Head to their website to take a look at the designers and book a consultation
