17 Years of Development and Specialization
We know the design and look of the house because we are focused - that is our core competency.
Our studio has transformed hundreds of homes for demanding clients, and drawn thousands of designs.
It's hard to find another team that will come up with as many facades in a whole career designing houses as ours does in a year. We have a lot of experience.
The peculiarity of our experience is to work with already given architecture, the practice of correcting boring, unfinished projects.
We try to understand what people want, what they are silent about; to stay on the client's side, but not to indulge in bad ideas; not to be offended by a rejected design.
What we believe
is our mission
- To have the most comprehensive and reliable information on residential facade technologies at your fingertips.
- To organize and share knowledge, to promote the level of building culture.
- Find and explain the best examples of facades to inspire yourself and others with the breadth of possibilities..
- To make people's environment harmonious, reliable and safe.
Besides projects
Some of our employees record their work observations in the company blog.
We monitor the low-rise construction market and share important facade news and announcements.
We are creating our own small encyclopedia of facades for our clients. These are comprehensive articles filled with content and verified information.
The studio's artistic director runs the "ArchReview" section, where they explore mechanisms for creating unique facades.
We have also been collecting a vast collection of magnificent facades for many years to inspire ourselves and our clients. Clients often compile their own collections there to have more specific conversations about their preferences.
How we work
We work to make the house a reflection of its owners and the environment. Our inspiration creates a space that a person can proudly call their own.
It is wonderful when a home becomes a reflection of its owners' individuality. When the passion and inspiration of designers is transformed into a space that people are proud to call their own.
Slow author design
Clients want a unique design for their special home. The best facades, like all good things, come from the attention and passion of their creators. You have to immerse yourself in the task.
Suitable materials
We don't have our own manufacturing or inventory. We look for and find the best for each project in terms of budget, performance, compatibility and reliability, proven by hard experience.
Essential Start
The first stage of sketching provides creative and varied ideas. Without sketching, designers do things that are easier to model in a familiar application.
Digital process
A house model and professional 3D visualization help you review the design from all angles, approve materials, and calculate areas, lengths, and parts.
Engineering Nodes
Not everything that seems durable and safe at the time of installation will prove so in 10 years. A curtainwall is meant to decorate and protect a home for a long time, but in climates with cold winters and blazing sun, this can be a challenge.
Reliability is an engineering challenge. The composition and combination of layers in the construction of the wall, roof, floor, platforms, openings and decks are important. Experience in working with different solutions and analyzing problems is important. We develop assemblies individually for each project.
Insulation
The choice of insulation type and thickness determines more than just heating costs. In a complex way, the strength of the wall and comfort depend on it. Suppose you can not save money and heat the air in the room, but if the inner surface of the wall is cold, there will be condensation and mold. The insulation or adhesive layer can get wet.
Facade insulation is calculated taking into account layers of construction, region, room type, seasonal moisture accumulation.
Installation guidelines
It's hard to overstate the importance of the actions of the builders themselves. For example, do you put adhesive on the tile or the wall, or on the tile and the wall? For wetting? To skim off the laitance? The size of the trowel notch? How to apply pressure? When to grout? There are misconceptions on the Internet. Our projects have consistent installation instructions.
