Discourse
Humans have had a sense of belonging to a place ever since we first used caves for protection from the elements. We decorated them with drawings and built fires for warmth. As we developed better building techniques and technology, we began to see our homes as extensions of ourselves. Even as new technologies and design trends come and go, our ultimate goal remains the same: to use technology to create the best possible outcome for any project, whether it's a building or a design for a human-made object.
Better techniques and technology emerge everyday, cycles of trends come and go, and at the end of the day, the ultimate necessity is the same.
We use technology to generate the best outcome for a project.
We use the pencil to conceptualize the best design for a human.
We stand at the intersection between art and technology.
Design Approach
At AV Architecture, we believe that the built environment should be in harmony with nature. We base our designs on the unique characteristics of the site, including the materials, natural surroundings, and local craftsmanship. By creating this connection, our designs feel like a natural response to the environment, rather than an imposition. We prioritize close collaboration with our clients and open communication to ensure that the final outcome is not only functional but also delivers the best experience possible.
