IDEOLOGY
S+PS Architects believes that every project is unique, and that the design should evolve through the particular characteristics of each project. We believe that it is the responsibility of the architect to create diverse, innovative and exciting environments.
Each Project should add a humane and desirable environment to the world, resulting in a continuous improvement of the constructed environment. Our strategy is to study the various desire lines on the site. Through negotiating the conflicting requirements of site, climate, technologies, client, authorities, end users and consultants, an IDEA is evolved that incorporates all these forces. This concept is then used to develop the design at all levels and scales, creating a unique architectural language for the project.
Architectural styles are avoided, as they limit the options available, and stifle exploration and creativity. However, precedents from all times and cultures are studied to gain experience and knowledge from the past.
The firm believes that good design is produced from this careful study and research, combined with technical knowledge and artistic judgment. Random and unforeseen events are examined for the possibility of adding richness and new possibilities to the design. Attention to detail, proportions and scale, together with common sense ensure that the end result fully develops the potential within the concept.
