Portfolio — 2008 to Present
From intimate private residences to civic landmarks, every project begins the same way: with deep listening, careful observation, and the courage to ask harder questions.
Oslo, Norway — 58°N
A home designed around the behavior of Nordic light. The long winter darkness demanded windows as generous as promises; the summer solstice required a completely different architecture. Meridian House is two buildings in one, unified by a central courtyard that changes character hour by hour.
Tokyo, Japan — Shibuya Ward
A 12-storey headquarters for a Japanese technology firm that wanted a building as intelligent as its people. The structural lattice — both decorative and load-bearing — weaves interior and exterior into a single perforated skin, filtering light while maintaining visual connection to the city.
São Paulo, Brazil — Jardins
Named for the sail-like concrete canopy that shields its terrace from tropical rains, Vela Residence navigates the tension between openness and enclosure. Every room reads as a pavilion; every threshold dissolves the boundary between inside and the lush garden beyond.
Lisbon, Portugal — Baixa
A museum of memory housed inside a partially ruined 18th-century warehouse. Rather than restoring or demolishing, we designed around the ruin — inserting glass and steel volumes into the gaps, letting the old stone speak without translation. Time is the exhibition.
Cape Town, South Africa — Sea Point
A boutique hotel that refuses to apologize for being beautiful. Each of the 24 rooms faces the Atlantic; each is a study in local materiality — rammed earth, bleached timber, hand-thrown ceramics. Sable doesn't look like any other hotel, because it looks like its place.
