A small studio, with people you actually meet

Four architects, a hundred and twenty projects, since 2011

Our story

Our story

We started in 2011, after both of us had spent years in large practices, where the client spoke to a project manager and never reached the person doing the drawing.

Here it is the other way round: the architect who listens to you in the first meeting is the one who signs the drawings and shows up on site. Slower at the beginning and much faster afterwards.

Since 2011 we have delivered 120 projects. About half came through recommendations.

How we work

We also say what cannot be done

If the plot or the budget will not carry what you pictured, you hear it in the first meeting.

Budget before sketch

We estimate build cost at concept stage. A beautiful house you cannot build helps nobody.

We draw the detail

A project without details gets resolved on site, by the builder, in a hurry.

The team

The same four people for over ten years. The person who designed it answers you.
