Philosophy

Architecture is atmospheric, fluctuating, fluent. logical, continuous. Not the pure function but the mood and atmosphere of the space, not a two-dimensional stratifaction but the urban logic determine the structure of our ideas and suggestions, short the adequacy of the means.

The development of strategic scenarios of use, optimization of the functional allocation and space, carefull and effective consorting with the ressource of daylight as well as the design of standard construction elements, possibly pre-fabricated and the effective use of material leads to a reduction in cost by a maximum increase in quality of our buildings.
