We are architects who design spaces grounded in context, though a process of investigating values, rituals and memory by embracing the idiosyncrasies of ourselves and our clients.
Our intention is for our architecture to inspire an intimate immersion and tactile engagement with the setting or surroundings.
We embrace harmony instead of traditional hierarchy, presence – the intensification of experience and extension of time, and balance – all key elements of life present, not one overpowering the other.
