Committed to the delivery of innovative and thoughtful architecture, we work within West Africa, as well as in collaboration with practices in other parts of the world, bringing a contemporary African interpretation to challenging briefs and new contexts.
We understand the need for buildings to respond to their locality, to stand the test of time, to be environmentally sustainable and to continually surprise, delight and engage us.
We believe that for a project to have lasting impact three elements must be respected: concept, culture and craft.
