Unified Freedom through structural
clarity
Architects are naturally suited
to making sense of a diverse and fluid environment and creatively achieving
outcomes. We have the capacity to use our integrating, iterating and innovating
skills to not meet not just architectural issues but the broader social agenda.
At the same time, by being aware of engineers and designers who’ve
guided the way to re-establish architecture as a unifying
identity, our practice is enriched and help the discipline to venture
off into new territories.
This methodology requires
structure yet permits freedom; this way of working suggests a
unifying freedom' and making allowances for the inherent differences between architecture
and engineering as disciplines.
It’s a group practice, an
assemblage of architects and engineers and it is based on a continuous
process of fine tuning among all identities within an organized context giving
a design that kind of emphatic structural legibility—while still
accommodating a complex program
Unified
Freedom through
structural clarity describes
that singular ability to act together in that spirit— Such
an explanation ties together diverse styles to adapt and serve
human needs.
