Commitment Statements

At Wilson Architects, we are committed to excellence, sustainability, and social responsibility.

Below are our formal statements that guide how we work - reflecting our dedication to quality, environmental stewardship, and community wellbeing.

Sustainability and Social Responsibility Action Plan

  • We strive to deepen our understanding and respect for First Nations cultures, acknowledging the traditional custodianship and history of the lands where we work. As a team, we continuously strive to expand our knowledge to inform our design and processes, to better serve our diverse clients, stakeholders, and communities.

    By establishing our Reconciliation Action Plan and developing strategies that address our responsibility as a practice, Wilson Architects is committed to work towards more inclusive, diverse and sustainable processes and outcomes that promote reconciliation within the built environment.

  • Our management systems and document control procedures are consistently applied across all projects. Wilson Architects have independent third party certification from SciQual International with respect to ISO 9001. This certification covers the provision of Architecture Design Services to Government, Semi-Government and Private Industry. We also have independent third party certification for AS/NZS ISO 14001 - Environmental Management Systems.

  • Wilson Architects’ commitment to sustainability starts with accountability. A sustainable future is dependant on our actions, and we are compelled to lead the way in bringing value and care for the community and environment, regenerative design, respect for nature and promoting social sustainability.

    Achieving meaningful social, environmental, and ethical outcomes requires a holistic, integrated approach at all levels of practice. In response, we have adopted a sustainable approach through our practice management systems, design and projects. We carry out annual retrospective appraisal and reporting for initiatives and targets identified in these areas.

    Since 2001, Wilson Architects has been certified for ISO 14001 Environmental Management Systems, and are also certified as a Carbon Neutral Business by the Carbon Reduction Institute.
