OUR VISION

FADAA is a multidisciplinary architecture and design practice that is dedicated to environmentally responsive design. Driven by our passion for excellence, and understanding the built environment’s role in social and environmental structures, we research and design projects that enable us to fundamentally reimagine how to enrich the relationship between architecture, culture, and the environment.

Carrying our generation’s zeal for social and environmental justice, FADAA constantly seeks out projects of varying scales, types and programs that allows us to engage inventive responses to environmental and social issues. We at FADAA believe that transformation, whether materially, sociologically, or culturally can happen through architecture. This gives us the opportunity to create relationships, build bridges, and have a positive impact on societies across the world.
