OSSIAN Architects has become a certified B Corporation joining a global movement of businesses that meet high standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability.
The Edinburgh-based practice, founded in 2022, is the only small architecture practice in Scotland to hold B Corp status, and one of fewer than 20 small architecture practices across the UK to achieve the certification.
Certification followed a rigorous year-long assessment process that examined every aspect of the practice’s operations. For Ossian Architects, the recognition builds on existing expertise in sustainability and conservation.
Martin Flett, director of Ossian Architects, said, “As a six-person practice, achieving B Corp certification is a milestone we’re especially proud of. It shows that even small studios can commit to responsible business and set an example for the wider industry.”
