Home \ Research \ &\also thinktank &\also thinktank\ Research underpins our creative output. In 2013, we established the &\also thinktank in order to dedicate more time and specialist skills to research and innovation on behalf of our clients and to inform and improve our work. About us The &\also thinktank is our in-house research consultancy dedicated to rumination, speculation and provocation, which runs in parallel to the commercial activities of the studio. &\also provides a platform for innovative thinking beyond and between our client-driven projects. Operating semi-autonomously, &\also produces regular reports that aggregate and analyse existing information, and that speculate on future forms of architecture and practice. How we work &\also draws together our wealth of experience across multiple sectors and provides a forum for the creation of new knowledge. We work on between two and four main projects a year, exploring the issues that are most relevant to the industry, and our work. We draw upon our network of consultants, clients, journalists and academics, who engage with us on both an informal and formal partnership basis.
