PHILOSOPHY

At ICON-ARCHITECS, we believethat the built environment must fulfill

the needs of the people, both

spiritually and physically. As such, thedomain of culture, climate and

context are central to our design

philosophy. These are, however, the

starting points of the larger design

process. The ultimate creation of

meaningful architecture is a rigorous

synthesis of many parts: invention,

symbolism, form, texture, movement,

relationship to the surroundings,

sustainability, services and character.

The question of utmost importance is

the determination of a buildings

effect on its users and onlookers; can

it elevate ones sense of well being

and compatibility? A whole or

completeness in architecture-design is

achieved when the design has

acknowledged, translated and

incorporated all these elements.

Equally significant to our practice is

the commitment to our clients. This is

evident from the level of personal

service we assign to all our projects.

Our clients also appreciate us forvaluing their resources of cost and

time.

The design philosophy of ICON is to

move forward from the past and

explore the endless possibilities of the

constantly changing future. The

principles of the past may help us to

understand ourselves better, but it

cannot be the sole engine to define

our present or future. We will express

our time. The challenge is to thus, rediscover and redefine. There is

also a conscious resolve of not repeating oneself, and strive for a

progression and development of ones design discourse.

The creation and conception of architecture must entail a constant

dialogue- to bring together the myriad of realities into the realm of an

architects world of wonder and imagination.

Architecture... must give a sense

of well being and compatibility.
