PROFILE

 

Per Vitruvius, Firmitas, Utilitas, and Venustas are applied. To our practice, Engineering is meant to be evidenced through the Architectural design. No design gets accomplished without structure, construction, or energy issues unresolved; that is our design religion.  Focus is not exclusive to engineering but always to holistic design.  On every project we undertake, we commit to providing a positive result that shall make a better place than it was before our intervention.  We aim to maximize energy efficiency through passive solar energy use, design buildings that are structurally sound, minimize risks, save our client’s wealth and not damage the environment.  Some of the characteristics of our work can be summarized by the following:


  Use of materials reflects their structural qualities

  Openness and Integration to context

  Optimized form and orientation for energy efficiency

  Integration of Architecture and Structural Design delivered together;

        Form is the Structure / The skeleton gives the form
