A sense of place
Every building begins with its ground — the light, the slope and the trees already standing.
Building for the climate
Deep shade, cross ventilation and thermal mass keep our rooms comfortable without machinery.
Materials close to home
Quarried stone, compressed earth blocks and Kenyan timber, specified for where they are used.
Homes that age well
Houses planned around courtyards, daylight and the way a family actually lives day to day.
Working at urban scale
Mixed-use buildings that give something back to the street they sit on.
Drawing with the landscape
Pavilions and retreats set lightly on their sites, keeping the existing tree canopy intact.
Buildings for communities
Schools and civic spaces built to be maintained locally and extended in phases.
Detail decides everything
We stay on site through construction, because the drawings are only half the work.
Reuse before rebuild
Adapting a building that already stands is usually the more sustainable brief.
