As we design for the future of architecture; it is important to pause and reflect on a collective imagined future that we all want to aspire towards. We are optimistic about our future vision, it comes from a lot of reflection and spiritual connection and the belief that the vision of future is more deeply imbibed in looking back than looking forward. In looking back and exploring the connection of man and nature, we understand what balance we aspire towards. The understanding of material, orientation and shading we understand the nuances of the built. In being humble and grounded, less disruptive and more connected we limit our footprint of impact. In appreciating what we have, what we can salvage and reuse and what we can build out of materials we understand best, we become resourceful and responsible.
The future also represents a reality of climate change, disruptive technologies, new construction materials, big data influence and the possibility of recurring pandemics. Our response to all that is to venture forward with complete responsibility of improving what you touch, use common sense and use less. We use what we understand in materiality but do it responsibly, we find a happy medium that is a very relevant vision for the future as much as it comes from the past.
With a focus on efficient, responsible, and experiential design, we collaborate through the design process to cater to the needs of the people who live in, work in, and use the spaces we create. We derive our architecture from local cultures, space rituals and client needs to create memorable spaces that delivers economic, social and sustainable value.
Our story is a humble one. Three individuals from diverse backgrounds and skill sets with their decades of previous experience coming together with common goals and values. We call ourselves Architecture Dialogue, as we believe in design as an outcome of dialogue between ourselves, our clients and our continually changing context.
