Description

Recently completed projects include 'Factory in the Forest' in Penang, a multi award-winning facility for Paramit, a Silicon Valley based US Electronics Company specializing in manufacturing medical & healthcare equipment.

Also recently completed is ‘Aemulus at the Runway’, the new HQ for electronics company Aemulus Corporation adjacent to Penang airport.
We are a design orientated practice who are passionate about architecture & the necessity of contact with nature central to our design philosophy. We work closely with our clients to create strong meaningful concepts & follow up with good detailing & close site supervision to ensure contractors follow drawings & workmanship is of the highest possible standard.
We are also passionate about designing & living sustainably and reducing energy consumption both to save costs for our clients & also to help our planet. Understanding the climate & passive design from project onset is crucial i.e. building form, orientation & shading, maximizing natural light & ventilation & designing landscape as an integral element of each project. Several of our buildings, both commercial & residential have been awarded for their low energy consumption/green credentials and we look to design all our buildings with this philosophy.
