Architecture
Everything downstream is a consequence of the plan. Change it late and six other disciplines redraw with you.
Architecture, structure, MEP, BIM, visualisation and site supervision sit under one roof — six disciplines arguing with each other early, so the argument does not happen later on a site with cranes on it.
A practice is not a list of job titles. It is a set of decisions, and an agreement about who gets to make each one.
Everything downstream is a consequence of the plan. Change it late and six other disciplines redraw with you.
Grid, spans, cores, transfers. Height is a structural argument long before it is a silhouette on a skyline.
Floor-to-floor height is settled here as much as in the elevation. A services drawing that arrives late rewrites the section.
The point of the model is where the clash is found: on a screen in Tashkent, or by a man on site with an angle grinder.
An image has to be answerable to the drawing behind it. One that promises what the plan cannot deliver is the most expensive thing a studio can produce.
Someone from the practice on site, comparing what arrived against what was issued, and staying until the two agree.
The practice was founded here in 2009 and incorporated two years later. The built work — Westminster International School, French House, the administrative building with its perforated panjara screen — was drawn from this studio.
Based here since 2023, after close to three years spent reading the market first — regulation, investment structures, how an approval actually moves — before working in it seriously.
Photographed through fluted glass, because a studio is a working place and not a showroom.
Some for a competition, some for a decade. Architects, engineers, modellers, visualisers and site staff, across five countries and four languages.
That figure counts everyone who has worked here since 2009. It is not the number of people at their desks this morning, and it is not offered as one.
Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Turkey, the UAE and Saudi Arabia. A drawing crosses all five without translation; the conversation around it does not.
Not a promise of a vacancy — an open door. Send the portfolio, the CV, and the projects you personally worked on rather than the ones your office worked on. All four languages are read here.
