In 2007 he established Exploration Architecture to develop work that employs biomimicry as a guiding principal and brings together three lifelong passions - biology, design and the environment.

After graduating in Architecture from The Bartlett, University College London, Pawlyn worked in London and Japan before returning to complete his studies at the University of Bath. He worked briefly as a researcher on television documentaries before joining Haworth Tompkins Architects.
