    Rod Rose, Anthony Merlin and Brian Jende

    i2C was established in 1999 and has been built from the ground up, forged by the strong friendship between architects Brian Jende and Anthony Merlin with Rod Rose joining the duo in 2018 as a result of a long term relationship between them.

    Award winning retail, urban planning and commercial projects have been a core part of our business from the beginning. Over the past ten years our architecture has expanded into mix-use developments and our expertise has grown to include interior design and branded environments. Together with our global alliance partner, Ryder Architecture we have extensive experience in the build to rent sector. Regenerative principles bring fresh thinking to our designs and practice that delivers healthy, comfortable, long term community focused solutions.

    We are passionate about design that has a positive impact on people, community, and the environment.

    Our Responsibility

    i2C commits to future sustainability as a certified B Corporation.

    We have a responsibility to positively shape our future. We focus on people, place and nature to inspire designs. We talk less of resource conservation, energy efficiency and negative impacts and more of human health and well-being, resilience, regeneration, and repair of our ‘whole’ ecosystem. i2C works with clients to identify and prioritise key sustainability factors and recommend effective design strategies that positively impact people, projects, organisations, communities and our wider global environment.
