BURA is an internationally operating office for urban design, research and (landscape) architecture. BURA provides solutions for the sustainable development and transformation of the urban landscape, through focused urban design strategies, innovative research and architectural interventions. We adopt an exploratory and cooperative design approach in bringing parties together and supervising spatial processes from idea to implementation. BURA has expertise in the following areas: complex urban developments, new residential and working districts, landscape visions, re-use and transformation, urban and regional economy, energy transition, healthy urbanisation. 

In 2020 the former name of the office ‘marco.broekman urbanism research architecture’ evolved into ‘BURA urbanism’ as abbreviation of Broekman Urbanism Research Architecture. After five successful years of ‘marco.broekman’, the office was ready for its next step. Next to the new name, Floris van der Zee was appointed as partner of Marco Broekman in BURA. The new name also reflects the teamwork that this office stands for. BURA works with a team of 18 urban planners, architects and landscape architects and is based in Loods 6 in Amsterdam.
