What We
Actually Do
Most contractors subcontract the difficult scope and coordinate it by email. We hold structure, envelope, MEP, joinery and controls inside one contract and one programme, because the seams between them are where projects go wrong.
We join at concept or at tender and carry buildability, cost and programme from that point forward. That includes value engineering proposals that protect the architectural intent rather than quietly erasing it — every substitution comes with a drawing showing what changes, before it is priced.
Reinforced concrete, post-tensioned slabs and structural steel. Piling and retention on sloped and reclaimed ground. Long-span cantilevers where the architecture asks for a corner with nothing under it. Every pour surveyed and recorded against the coordinated model.
Unitised and stick-system curtain walling, minimal-frame sliding doors, stone and metal rainscreen. Detailed and tested for 48°C summers, driven rain and the thermal movement that comes with both. We procure glazing early so the frame is poured to the mullion.
In-house joinery and stone setting-out. Dry-lay every stone run and every book-matched slab before fixing. Full-height doors, shadow gaps and flush details that survive a building which is still moving.
Coordinated services drawn to the ceiling void that actually exists, not the one on the layout. Zoned VRF and chilled water, heat-recovery ventilation, and pool and irrigation plant sized for the summer peak rather than the average.
Lighting, shading, climate, audio and access commissioned together on a single bus, against one set of scenes. One wall panel and voice control, not five apps. We hand over the source scenes and the addressing schedule so any integrator can maintain it later.
Infinity edges, vanishing details, hard landscape and irrigation. Waterproofing and movement joints resolved with the structure, not added afterwards to a slab that was never designed to hold water.
One project director from tender to the twelve-month inspection. Weekly cost report, four-week look-ahead, and a single accountable party when something needs a decision.
Sectors we build in
Residential
Private villas, estates and penthouses from 400 m² upward. Twenty-four delivered, most through the architect rather than the owner.
Hospitality
Boutique hotels, clubhouses and restaurants. Phased works around live operations, with noise and access windows written into the programme.
Commercial
Workplace, showroom and base-build up to about 12,000 m². Shell-and-core through to tenant fit-out under one contract.
Development
Our own plots, acquired and built out. The fastest way we have found to learn what a building actually costs to own rather than to build.
Commercials
Three ways to engage.
Lump sum
Fixed price against a complete tender set. Best where the design is fully resolved and change is unlikely.
Design & build
Single point of responsibility for design and construction. Fastest route from brief to site.
Construction management
Open-book, trade packages tendered individually with a fixed management fee. Best for complex or evolving briefs.
