Absolutely excellent. Quick response and a pleasure to work with.
What do you love most about your job?
I am able to be creative on a daily basis, and find smart and cost effective solutions to different issues during the construction process.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I started out in Social Architecture and I was doing Residential Projects for family and friends, I liked it so much that I decided to open up my own Architecture firm that specializes in Residential architecture.
Why should our clients choose you?
We provide exceptional service, and manage the design and construction process for our clients so that we can reduce the stress for them of renovating an existing property. We can also design projects from scratch, where we work through the design stages with our client step by step in order to make their dreams a reality.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
Yes, I can do all the work online/remotely if I have a base drawing to work from when it comes to renovations. With new builds I can work remotely and have Zoom meetings with clients to discuss the designs.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
I have moved most of my design meetings to Zoom Meetings. We did this successfully for clients that live in Doha. When I need to go to site meetings for construction or have in person site measuring we need to do, we come prepared with masks, sanitizer and we don't touch anything whilst in the space. We also follow social distancing.
