About
Who is Dot. Architecture
Dowry. architecture constitutes a dynamic team of architects, combining the energy and talent of the next generation with the experience and expertise of senior architects.
We have several large-scale projects under our belt, including several residential, commercial, corporate, institutional, cultural and sports construction and renovation projects.
Throughout our journey, we have developed an architectural approach based on careful observation of the surrounding contexts.
Our aspiration is to design dynamic, efficient and sustainable projects, capable of generating poetic and emotional reactions in their occupants. This built purpose crystallizes through two major axes: on the one hand, the relationship between architecture and the contexts, and on the other hand, the interaction between the built environment and the individuals who use it.
By forging a dialogue between context and architecture, we strive to reveal and enhance existing characteristics in order to create new places, anchored in their environment and relevant.
To do this, our ecological and cultural sensitivity also pushes us to consider materiality as an initial choice. This design, based on the use of available resources, is part of an approach to preservation and reconnection with our inhabited environments.
We strive to understand the material we shape and to build healthy projects, in harmony with their context and at the service of their occupants.
Through our creations, we explore the notion of atmosphere in architecture and the design of spaces.
We view atmosphere as a fundamental component of the human experience of space, going beyond purely aesthetic or functional considerations.
Light, openings, materials and attention to detail constitute the foundations of our projects. We are convinced that the atmosphere represents the tangible manifestation of the emotional state of the built space, in interaction with man.
This, of course, evolves depending on the clients and projects, but it reflects the identity of the occupants, their emotions and their way of using these places.
We place great importance on building strong relationships with our clients, as well as a deep understanding of their needs and vision.
Dialogue, the expression of ideas through drawing, informed advice and close collaboration with all project stakeholders are, in our eyes, crucial elements to guarantee the success of any architectural approach.
