We are Envision

The world faces huge climate and resource challenges. The built environment accounts for roughly 40% of man-made global emissions and our industry is beginning to face up to this challenge. We are part of the solution.

Letter from the founder

The first decade of Envision has been absolutely fantastic. It had always been a personal ambition of mine to run a business, however I didn’t realise what this truly meant. Lots of hard work. Laptops on beaches, late nights, and plenty of failure. But thanks to the dedication of a fantastic team, we are stronger than ever.

The company grew from humble beginnings in a flat above a charity shop. Envision got its name from an architectural textbook. I was flicking through this book and landed on Envision – ‘To imagine as a future possibility’. That is what we want to do: we help our clients and collaborators imagine a better future.

As we grow we want to stay true to our vision and purpose – to be a market leading sustainability practice in our class.

Vision

Mission

Where we want to get to

With ever growing interest in sustainable buildings comes increasing disorientation. At Envision, we champion real, measurable improvements in the built environment and steer our clients towards impactful and effective strategies for these improvements. We offer an end-to-end understanding on how to implement sustainability in a building’s lifecycle. We want to become the leading provider of sustainability services within the sectors in which we operate.

Mission

How we're going to get there

How do we deliver this vision?

Our vision will be delivered by leveraging three key aspects of our business:

1 Our extensive experience on delivering sustainability within the built environment,
2 Director level support to each and every project, and
3 The quality of our diverse, multi-skilled team.

Core values

Impactful work requires a world-class team. Our first core value is to deliver a fun, inclusive and motivating work environment for our staff. Without this we cannot deliver effectively.
We are passionate about the environment we live in and want to support our clients and collaborators to build a better future.
