Architecture firm Perkins + Will says it has acquired Portland Design Associates, a branding, retail strategy and design consultancy based in London but with a large presence in the Middle East.
In a press release the company reported that Portland will continue to maintain its own brand and operate as a separate entity.
“Our clients will benefit from Portland’s consumer insights, creativity, and strategic thinking, and Portland’s clients will benefit from Perkins+Will’s global reach and broad architectural, design, and planning expertise,” said Phil Harrison, CEO and President of Perkins+Will.
Portland is the latest creative services firm to join the Perkins+Will group of companies. The consultancy’s Middle East clients have included Dubai Duty Free and Sama Dubai.
