Below, we explore how the firm approaches the creation of its bespoke projects, and how it has integrated its founder’s experiences into its intricate processes. Most Innovative Design Management Advisory Firm 2024 - London SMD+ Contact: Sylvie Milosevic Company: SMD+ Web Address: https://www.smdplus.co.uk/ Established as an independent management consultancy back in 2016, SMD+ has spent the past eight years impressing and astounding project collaborators around the world. Recognised for its ability to cultivate distinct iconography across its architectural endeavours, the firm has become synonymous with innovative progression. As such, it’s managed to deliver results to the global stage – results that take the form of sports, leisure, hospitality, residential, and government build projects. Truly reflective of Sylvie’s passion, these projects capture a certain sense of memorability that definitely doesn’t go unnoticed. In fact, it’s Sylvie’s vision that has continuously driven the company forward. Since the very beginning, she has injected her own sense of identity into each project, all in the hopes of delivering a worldclass solution to the build environment, regardless of the challenges presented by the sheer breadth of projects undertaken along the way. Empowered by her time spent travelling the world, Sylvie has championed the art of integrating cultural elements into SMD+’s management ventures and various partnerships, granting them a vivid sense of individuality that really plays into their unforgettable architectural nature and unique environment. In Sylvie’s own words – “As the Founder and Owner of SMD+, I took the journey to create the practice and develop it at an international level by bringing in young talent both locally and from abroad, collaborating with people with different experience and expertise along the way on projects at different levels and stages, and resolving the most pressing challenges.” Where most may be overwhelmed by the immense amount of opportunities presented by the planet’s myriad of cultures, SMD+ instead harnesses Sylvie’s fascination for the wider world to present projects that transcend what one may expect from your typical consultancy firm. From the moment it undertakes a project, SMD+ seeks to develop cutting edge innovative insights to its collaborators and clients (developing its own R&D platform). In doing so, it’s been able to successfully create the schematics for builds that, upon completion, capture the very essence of their intended purpose. Be it a high tech cultural centre, luxurious hotel, or a government office, SMD+ delves into what makes each instance unique, and begins a thorough exploration of these very traits. From there, it cultivates brief, ideas, strategy, and methodologies that are specifically defined to work in tandem with the nuances presented by each and every project. Sylvie shares, “I would like to personally thank companies and clients who has supported our journey until today such the VINCI Construction, EGIS GROUP The French Ministry of Foreign Affairs, French Institute, BDO, Newable, JP Morgan, IZAKI Group Investment, Innovate UK R&I, PLENDI, Another Design International, French Chamber of Commerce of Great Britain.” Since 2016, SMD+ has been elevating the standards of the built environment industry, with its success standing as a testament to the immense wealth of talent displayed by each individual under its name. Elevated by the detailed experience of Sylvie Milosevic, the collective has outperformed a variety of similar firms, all in the pursuit of bringing something new and memorable to an industry with such boundless potential. As such, we believe it’s only fitting to present SMD+ with the title of Most Innovative Design Management Advisory Firm 2024 – London, and we look forward to seeing how its involvement in the Architecture Awards 2024 further elevates its influence within the broader build sphere.
