We bring life to old buildings.

Our team consists of architects, architectural historians,
archaeologists and information modelling experts.

An important starting point for our work is to understand the objectives of the owner and user of the property. Equally important is to establish the existing state of the property or site. Only through professional and comprehensive research can a shared, informed view of the site’s characteristics, potentials and challenges be formed.

Finding creative solutions requires a determined approach, whether it is a question of conceptualising new use of space, spatial concepts or basic structural solutions.

For us, construction means close and long-term cooperation with the different parties involved in the project. A shared vision is found through an open and interactive design process.

We have the courage to match commercial
objectives and conservation perspectives.
