Services
From architectural vision to final drawings — including facades, layouts, sketches, documentation and immersive visualizations.
An architecture atelier rooted in precision and emotion. We design with a deep understanding of context, function and timeless form — shaping houses that feel effortless, intuitive and distinctly refined. From desert courts to mountain pavilions, each residence is tailored with vision and care.

Travertine study — vein-cut slabs
Travertine Navona
Vein-cut slabs, 30 mm
Arrival courts and pool copings. Ages from pale cream to a soft honey; every slab mapped before cutting so veins run continuous across corners.
Brass and onyx study
Brushed brass
Unlacquered, hand-finished
Doors, taps, reveals and stair rails. Left unlacquered so touch patinas it; handed over already glowing, keeps improving for decades.
Backlit onyx detail
Backlit onyx
20 mm, warm-white behind
Baths and bar fronts. Lit from behind at warm white, the stone becomes the room's light source — no downlights needed above it.
Glazing wall, great room — Aspen
Triple glazing
Sealed rebates, lined reveals
Low-iron units in deep stone reveals with lined party walls. Interiors hold silence from street to suite, in snow and in shamal alike.
By private
commission
Every house here was built for a private client. Names stay confidential — the dossiers carry the project instead. Open any row.
Client names withheld — scope and team in each dossier.
