About this issue

6a architects is an architecture practice based in London, founded in 2001 by Tom Emerson and Stephanie Macdonald. Owen Lo Watson, who joined the studio in 2007, has been a director since 2017 and a partner since 2026; John Ross and Karolina Sznajder are also directors. Tom Emerson has been Professor of Architecture at ETH Zurich since 2010. Both founders were made Officers of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in 2021 and elected Royal Academicians in 2023.

The studio's awards include the Heinrich Tessenow Gold Medal (2023), RIBA National Awards for Coastal House, SLG Fire Station, MK Gallery and Great Things Lie Ahead, Holborn House, and a RIBA Stirling Prize nomination (2017) for the Photography Studio for Juergen Teller. Recent competition wins include Tate Liverpool (2022), Habitat, Limhamn (2023, with Nilsson Rahm Arkitekter and Johan Dehlin Arkitektur), Fashion Museum Bath (2024) and Gray's Inn Road, London (2025).
