Company Overview
About Us
SMMA exists to solve our clients’ most complex design challenges.
70 years ago, we pioneered an approach that integrates architecture, engineering, interior design, and planning to turn the most tangled design problems into refined and unexpected answers. Together, our diverse, integrated team of experts works across disciplines, sharing perspectives, inspirations, and ideas. We are bound by mutual trust, aligned by shared values, and united in focus on a single goal—our client’s goal.
Our work straddles seven markets— Development, Government, Higher Education, K-12, Life Sciences, Technology, and Workplace—with the opportunity to work across a wide range of projects and specialisms.
SMMA is a 100% employee-owned company, where every team member is an invested stakeholder. Our collective ownership fuels our passion for excellence, driving us to attract top talent and deliver exceptional results for our clients. Here, your voice matters, your ideas shape our future, and your success directly contributes to our shared growth.
