design

our philosophy

we strive to be different…

and that begins with our design philosophy

From residential, commercial, to community based projects, our architectural design approach is about thoughtful composition with an emphasis on the finer details. For us it is important to move past the singular aspects of design and expand into a world of plurality.

Each project is unique and requires a tailored offering of architectural services, that’s why we work with client’s from the outset to understand their design requirements. 

We believe quality architecture begins with a philosophy embodied by knowledge, training, rigor, resourcefulness, and curiosities. It is this philosophy that guides our project design approach.

our design approach

inspiration

Whether it be working with a set of ideas, interests, styles, guidelines, or collaborating with community members, we look for different ways to integrate design inspiration into our projects.

site enrichment

A project site is an opportunity to inform, and further enrich, design outcomes which are often overlooked.

dynamic elements

We envisage a building facade as being a dynamic architectural element, making the mediation between interior and exterior spaces an important part of our design thinking.

materiality

We strive for creative ways to enhance spatial experience by exploring the various physical properties and articulation of materials, adding value to their aesthetic appreciation.

performance | function

From functionality, accessibility, through to energy efficiency, buildings are an integral part of our lived experience which is why we value how a building performs.
