We work closely with our clients with careful attention to their individual requirements. Working collaboratively with all stakeholders involved, we pride ourselves in our ability to communicate clearly and effectively with the whole team. The name of the company - Room 102 - is a reference to George Orwell’s ‘Room 101’, featured in his novel 1984. Room 101 is a place in which a prisoner is subjected to his or her own worst nightmare, fear or phobia. In contrast 'Room 102’ is our imaginary next room along and the complete opposite - a space filled with the inhabitant's every hope, dream and desire. The desire for spaces and buildings to be light filled, sustainable, considering views, materiality and the relationship to its surroundings is at the heart of everything we do at Room 102. We see architecture as a great opportunity to improve the quality of peoples' lives. |
Driven by imagination and intelligence we create beautiful, sustainable and functional spaces. We aspire to an architecture that conveys an intense spatial quality, which is contextual and where facets of light, views and materiality are implicitly considered.
