Studio Bahman

                                                   Our Manifesto

• We envision humans as intelligent agents programmed with the ability to adapt and customise their surroundings for optimum comfort. We therefore, believe in studying our occupier as agents to create optimum surroundings.

• We believe space is generated through occupation, therefore our architecture is the manifestation of the activities of its occupiers.

• We believe in the collaborative power of community and individual experts to the achieve the optimum for individuals.

• By empowering communities we believe in handing power back to occupants and through this participation transform architecture into a tool for occupants to: Exist, Grow and Modify with time and needs.

• We use expertise of a worldwide community of specialist in the field to reach these goals.

• We use visualisation to understand and envision the environment we create and encourage client participation and feedback in the design process.

• We see architecture as the extension of the human skin not a boundary to our existence and growth.

• We believe architecture ought to grow and adapt like the skin and the garments we are in.

• We believe our skin grows,changes and breathes and so should our buildings.

• Our garments are tailored to measure and we are able to change them to suit with our temperature, mood, season and environment, And so should our buildings.

• We are a growing collaboration of skilled specialists, who aim to combine the principles of vernacular and the latest technology to create the optimum comfortable spaces for our clients, not only through participation but by perceiving architecture as a tool for occupants as opposed to boundaries.

•  We create complex strategies to empower communities through constant ability to adapt and grow building spaces to change and grow over time.

• Adaptive and non-static architecture : for spaces that can occupiers control as opposed to spaces that control occupiers.

• We endeavour to merge the principals of top-down master planning and bottom up vernacular architecture, to meet human needs in between.
