PHILOSOPHY
The firm’s core belief is that architecture should not be considered as a temporary product, but as a creation that passes the test of time. Trying to balance the scale between timeless designs and keeping up with times, the team is in a continuous search of innovative new technics. These innovations often need to be adjusted and redefined in order to conform to, give prominence and enhance specific projects. The desired result is a design that causes sensation with direct physical and emotional impact. The goal is to create cost efficient sustainable designs that offer durability through time with maximum quality. Considering the consequences and the impact of uncontrollable human activities affecting the environment, the projects need to give priority to the interrelationship between architecture and nature and integrate that necessity in the contemporary architectural design.
