Our Studio
We are a young and creative design-led architecture practice based in London. Our studio thrives on applying imaginative design solutions to transform everyday architecture, with a keen eye on simple and considered details that elevate the spaces we inhabit.
Our professional experience covers a range of design sectors, from commercial office fit-outs and multi-unit residential schemes to individual homes, bespoke conversions, and extensions.
We take our clients on a visual journey, beyond the typical 2D plans, developing all mibe projects from the outset in 3D which allows our clients to get a better understanding of the spatial qualities which are unique to each project.
We provide a full creative and technical design service, from initial site appraisals, concept design and planning applications through to Building Regulation drawings and tender packages; all in accordance with the RIBA plan of works.
