Atelier One. Atelier One is a British structural engineering company, established in 1989 and based in London. The company has collaborated with architects, designers and artists (including Paul Cocksedge, Anish Kapoor and Rachel Whiteread), and has been described as 'the most innovative engineering practice in the UK.' 

Past projects include a large number of large international projects including the shell structures of the Singapore Arts Centre, the development of Federation Square in Melbourne, Australia, and in the UK the Baltic Gallery in Gateshead  and three buildings for White Cube in London.

In addition to both public and private buildings, Atelier One is also involved in a variety of art installation projects, touring exhibitions and stages. Some of the most notable completed projects are Anish Kapoor's Cloud Gate in Chicago  and stage sets for U2, The Rolling Stones and Take That.

Gardens by the Bay, a collaboration between Atelier One, Atelier Ten, Grant associates and WilkinsonEyre, in Singapore was awarded the World Building of the Year prize at the World Architecture Festival in 2012.

In 2022, the gymnasium at the Green School (Bali), a project by Atelier One, was awarded the Supreme Award for Structural Engineering Excellence from the Institute of structural engineers.
