The Dewjo'c merger represents the commitment of Devereux Architects and PM Group to major investment and growth in the UK and expansion of the Devereux Architects brand internationally.
London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, London:
Devereux Architects is already one of the top 50 architectural practices in the UK and the expanded practice is expected to join the top 20 following the merger today. The synergy between the two practices, for example in the Building Schools for the Future programme, and their geographical spread across the UK and internationally, will allow the newly merged Devereux Architects to expand its business, particularly in the healthcare, education and biopharma sectors.
Altitude 25, Croydon, London:
Nic Allen, MD of Devereux Architects, said: "Overnight Devereux Architects has become one of the UK's top architectural practices.

Peter Walker, MD of Dewjo'c Architects commented: "This is a very exciting time as the merger with Devereux will significantly enhance our offerings in our specialist sectors of healthcare, education and biopharma. These enhanced capabilities mean we can provide even greater services to our existing and expanding client base."
