Showcasing the arts is of necessity a brave and complex union of the creative and the commercial: ideally a meeting of minds and entwining of goals. Davis Langdon has worked with zeal and commitment on some of the most iconic and ambitious cultural initiatives in Europe and the Middle East.

Our specialist cultural and assembly team has many years’ experience of large and complex projects within the performing arts, museums, meeting spaces, galleries and heritage sector. We understand the key drivers in these markets and seek to align our aims with our clients’ values. We identify with the imperatives of promoting and preserving culture and heritage, encouraging visitors, inspiring them to engage with the facility, and generating revenue streams through associated retail and destination facilities.

Types of projects we've worked on include arts centres, concert halls, conference centres, exhibition centres, galleries, zoos, libraries, monuments, museums, theatres and visitor attractions. Commissions have involved a wide range of scenarios: listed buildings, lottery funding, occupied buildings, and multiple stakeholders including artists, trustees, project sponsors and arts councils. We offer a hands-on and team based philosophy, injecting our own creativity into every cultural initiative we work on.
