Oxigen is an integrated design practice upheld by the passions and multi-disciplinary skills of its team. Working within a collaborative studio environment, our skills are derived from formal qualifications in landscape architecture, urban design, regional planning, industrial design, architecture, and urban horticulture. As a practice, our objective is to mesh this expertise with our commitment to establishing a strong sense of place. Our realised projects vary in scale and type, from intimate private spaces to large, strategic masterplans. Whatever the project’s size and nature, Oxigen’s designs reflect memory of place and technical innovation to contribute towards healthy, sustainable, and liveable cities, and creating places that become loved as part of everyday life.

Oxigen continuously re-evaluates its acquired technical and detailed knowledge in order to achieve environmentally and socially responsible, quality designs. Our designs utilise and promote innovation, taking advantage of artistic and technological advances within our team and wider industry. As a practice, we value research, rigorous attention to detail, and respecting the creative process.

Oxigen strives to create environmentally healthy design solutions which remain specific to each site, drawing our design principles from the place’s context, climate, and ecology. We hope to honour each site by forming ecologically effective designs which are derived from a fundamental understanding of each place and its inevitable uniqueness.

Oxigen focuses on professional ethics, social responsibility, and sustainable development. These values apply externally to the projects we associate with, and internally with the strategic design and detailed resolution of projects. Oxigen’s commitment to financial, social and environmental sustainability extends from our practice’s corporate governance and ethical approach to management that values staff participation and openness.

As a practice, we encourage collaboration to achieve our desired design outcomes. Including the dialogue of local communities in our process is essential to enriching our designs and imbuing our projects with local knowledge, voices, and experiences. Our focus is to cultivate a dialogue between the community, client, consultants, and the space itself. We support this exchange of ideas with a collaborative team approach.

Oxigen is proud to deliver high quality projects for its clients on time and to budget. Having contributed to Australia's urban design industry for the last 15 years, we have realised the design, planning, and construction of some of our country’s best-known places – supporting the definition of Australian environments.
