Our process

01

Immerse

We immerse ourselves in your community through site audits, focus group discussions, and workshops. This phase is all about diving deep to guarantee a community-centric approach and a strong sense of cultural identity.

02

Synthesise

We synthesise all the data we’ve collected into reports, strategic plans, and sustainable design concepts and then review them.

03

Ideate

Looking through the lens of your community’s unique cultural nuances, we develop a comprehensive master plan that includes our initial cost estimates.

04

Empower

We create a constructive, barrier-free environment where you’re encouraged to share your ideas and co-design your space to guarantee it celebrates the cultural richness and diversity of your community.

05

Create

We refine the design and then work closely with the construction teams to bring your cultural space to life, handling any challenges along the way with a positive attitude and a smile.
