… designing with people for people …
BELONG is an architectural studio set up by Meera Nash and Ben Stagg to work collaboratively with community groups and like-minded organisations, and deliver environmental and social change through great design.
“Meera and Ben have been incredibly hands on and pragmatic, engaging with residents, staff and partner organisations. The plans and ideas have been reproduced and relayed in the form of beautiful, engaging graphics which are pieces of art in themselves! It is a pleasure to work with Meera and Ben.”
- Hamilton Square resident
We believe that through meaningful collaboration and participation we can create better places which are shaped by the real needs of people; places to which people feel they are connected and where everyone can feel they belong.
“You cannot change any society unless you take responsibility for it, unless you see yourself as belonging to it and responsible for changing it”
