Located in Cape Town, the practice provides architectural expertise for new and heritage buildings specialising in contemporary interventions in a heritage context.

 

In support of its sustainability aims it has also been responsible for the re-cycling of buildings to new uses and has experience with green building technologies including rammed earth construction and rock store cooling and heating strategies and thermally efficient brick vaulting toward a zero-carbon world.

 

The practice continues the work and attitudes of the late Gabriël Fagan in acknowledging the value of designing buildings to suit the site, working with weather constraints, orientation, topography, context, material, and human scale. These primary concerns support responsible design.
