RENDER SPACES & PLACES

We believe in a layered approach to design, shaped by existing conditions and defined by programmatic concerns, aesthetical wishes and budgetary and temporal constraints. We believe that every solution needs to have its own unique personality and somehow elevate the experience of both the casual observer and the ultimate user. We believe that every solution needs to address all of the senses of the observers and ultimately draw them into the space as participants. We believe in contextual solutions that engage and are engaged by the urban or natural fabric, solutions where the raw space is shaped and is interesting even by itself. Materials, Colors, Lighting, furniture and furnishings are but added layers of necessary requirements that add and augment the total experience and need to be planned out accordingly. We believe in natural and sustainable materials and the beauty inherent in high quality engineering and manufacturing. We believe in well organized and clear presentation that artistically can stand by themselves. We believe in clear, concise and dramatic concepts. We believe in the careful integration of both inside and outside We believe in the art of architecture.
