Metaspace Design

fficient and flexible - those that reflect the fast changing world we live in. The health and well-being of both the people who inhabit our buildings and the environment our buildings inhabit, Biophilic design and environmental sustainability are the foundations on which our practice is built. We do not design our buildings to exhibit any particular "style". We do not advocate historical precedent, nor, at the other extreme – do we subscribe to short-lived design fads and the "isms" that seem to sprout in ever increasing numbers. We stay away from all the distracting noise that pervades the design space, instead opting for a simple and timeless elegance that is dictated by function, technology, human and environmental wellbeing and logic. Our practice also takes pride in ensuring that every detail down to the last bolt is “designed” as we believe that bold and exciting conceptual ideas without intelligent detailing is only half a solution. We believe that Form and Function are equal partners in our design solutions. Neither is less important, but form evolves from the functional exigencies of space, structure and detail rather than being an aesthetic priority that is an end in itself. The meaningful practice of Architecture in Metaspace is inherently infused with one overarching goal: to push the envelope. What drives and excites us is the continuous search for new solutions – not for the sake of being” different”, but because we believe that every new day is an opportunity for us to improve on what we had done the previous day, and that new problems and technologies call for new ideas rather than the regurgitation of decades old ways of doing business. And yes, we WANT to be excited everyday - because it is that excitement that fuels innovation.
