DESIGN APPROACH

At aloe Studio architects our proficiency lies in the design of contemporary, timeless residential buildings. Although our focus is primarily on residential architecture, we do occasionally accept the challenge of designing educational, retail and commercial buildings as well. We develop a building in such a way that it remains specific to its context and is responsible towards the environment. Our design approach is rooted in these three fundamental topics.

SITE SPECIFIC & ENVIRONMENTALLY RESPONSIBLE DESIGN
We realize the importance and opportunity to incorporate climate responsive building techniques, methods and materials into our designs in our unique and sometimes extreme climate.

TIMELESS & CONTEMPORARY DESIGN
We believe that meticulously designed buildings can change the world and would still be considered both beautiful and functional 100 years from now.

COST SENSITIVE DESIGN
Beautiful buildings don’t have to break the bank. We understand that we operate in a fragile economic environment and believe that good architects can produce amazing designs whilst implementing a cost sensitive design approach throughout the design process.
