An architectural design is therefore a response to a problem that we must first understand and familiarize ourselves with throughout the project. At the same time, the conditions often change and our design must be able to absorb that.

Our process: The three points, Aesthetics, Function, and Sustainability are equal and we continuously change the angle of view, perspective, and scale. They must always be seen in context. We are always investigative and questioning throughout the process to uncover its character and inherent design challenges. We take pride in and strive to be the one who solves and is responsible for the whole and understands the entire project - we are not just one of many disciplines. Our architectural success largely depends on the process and collaboration with other parties, therefore we always work to create co-ownership among all parties. In the process, we focus on where our proposal can create added value for the client and the overall project. We work with the task - not against it

  • Our projects have a long lifespan because they have considered the aspects of aesthetics, function, and sustainability - and that is sustainable.
  • The right material for the right function in the right place
  • We will bring sustainability to the client's agenda, preferably evidence-based
  • We always assess the options for recycling before using new: re-use, reduce, recycle
  • Sustainability can be a lever for our aesthetics
  • We must ensure a focus on our buildings being built with disassembly and recycling in mind
  • We work to create enthusiasm for sustainability as an integrated part of the design solution.

The selection of materials is always based on careful consideration of location, their role and patination, with operation also taken into account. We recognise that there is a difference between those we have closer to people and those we only look at from a distance.
