Code of Practice was founded in 2009 by Stanley Fuls, Florian Boxberg and Tom Mival who had practiced as senior staff in the Berlin offices of Foster + Partners and Sauerbruch Hutton Architects.

Taking a specific approach to their work, they undertake detailed analysis of context and subsequently task which formulates the foundation of their design process. This methodology was founded through various experiences in the design and realisation of large scale, new-build projects and the renovation of heritage-listed buildings.

Their work is often characterised by a reconsideration of any existing building structures and commitment to sustainability within the practice and work is always maintained. Solutions are distinguished by their flexibility, ease and efficiency.
