“Underlying all of WMEboom’s work is inherent flexibility, attention to detail and consideration for our clients’ needs, identifying where value can be best delivered.”
Our Philosophy
We add tangible value to all architectural building designs and urban master plan proposals by the integration of intelligent design solutions, drawn from a diverse pool of expertise. We make sure that the right skills are available at the right time for all our projects, and that they are delivered with passion and integrity.
We help to lead the industry through active participation in working groups such as Soft Landings and BIM, seeing a route to better practice and more intelligent design through smarter working. We spread our passion for truly integrated design through the industry by our educational work at the Centre for Alternative Technologies (CAT), University of Portsmouth and London Metropolitan University.
It is our aspiration to achieve a carbon positive future, working to bring together practice, industry, education and policymaking towards this common aim. We want to see the built environment supporting the generation of more renewable energy and companies and thought leaders taking accountability and promoting the growth of regenerative design with our help.
New Professionalism
We are committed to adopting this code of practice on all projects and for all clients.
WMEboom is founded on the principles of “New Professionalism” – We believe that we have a responsibility to build an industry culture of understanding, honesty and lasting value, in order to achieve intelligent design solutions and better buildings.
The Usable Building Trust, collaborating with “The Edge” (edgedebate.com), have written a paper (Dec 2012) on the new professionalism that is felt to be necessary to design and deliver sustainable, low energy buildings. This paper is a ‘call to arms’ across the built environment industry, identifying the pitfalls and building blocks for current built environment professionals and how the industry at large must change.
Within this paper, based on the experience and research undertaken by a multi-professional set of experts within this field, there is a statement on a code of conduct for the new professional, a Hippocratic Oath of the environmental engineering industry. The elements of this code are:
- Be a steward of the community, its resources and the planet. Take a broad view.
- Do the right thing, beyond your obligation to whoever pays your fee.
- Develop trusting relationships, with open and honest collaboration.
- Bridge between design, project implementation and use. Concentrate on the outcomes.
- Do not walk away. Provide follow-through and after-care.
- Evaluate and reflect upon the performance in use of your work. Feedback the findings.
- Learn from your actions and admit your mistakes. Share your understanding openly.
- Bring together practice, industry, education, research and policy-making.
- Challenge assumptions and standards. Be honest about what you do not know.
- Understand contexts and constraints. Create lasting value. Keep options open for the future.
