01
Soil survey
Bearing capacity, ground conditions, risks. We know what we are building on before we draw.
Design and build office · Yaoundé
Buildingfrom A to Z
The drawing, the calculation, the site and the handover. One office follows you from the first sketch to the last finish, and one person answers for all of it.
What A to Z means
You deal with one office, not three
On most sites the architect blames the engineer, the engineer blames the contractor, and the client arbitrates without the facts. We keep the three trades in the same office. What is drawn is calculated, what is calculated is built, and responsibility never dissolves.
02
Design
The brief, the plans, the volumes. How you will live in it first, aesthetics second.
03
Structural design
Foundations, columns, floors. Sized correctly, neither fragile nor wasteful.
04
Construction
The site, the crews, the budget and the schedule held, with regular reporting.

What we do
Five skills, one office
They hold each other up. Because they live under the same roof, the project never gets lost between two suppliers.
01
Construction
Solid, lasting buildings
Residential, commercial or industrial. We run the site to standard, on time and on the agreed budget, including crews and supply chain.
- Structural and finishing works
- Site management and trade coordination
- Budget and schedule tracking
02
Architecture
Design that starts from how you live
Every project is unique. We design spaces that suit your way of living and your plot, with a written brief agreed before the first line is drawn.
- Brief, sketch and working drawings
- Siting and orientation on the plot
- Building permit file
03
Renovation
Working with what is already there
Refurbishment, extension, bringing a building up to standard. We survey what exists, assess what can be kept, and price it before anything is demolished.
- Survey of the existing building
- Extension and additional storeys
- Underpinning and strengthening
04
Geotechnical surveys
Knowing what you are building on
The survey analyses the ground and its bearing capacity, sets the right foundation principle and prevents settlement. It is the most profitable saving on any site.
- Soil composition and stability analysis
- Identification of geological risks
- Choice of foundation type
05
Structural engineering
Sized right, neither over nor under
Our engineers check that the building withstands permanent and accidental loads, to local and international standards. Precise sizing avoids both costly over-engineering and dangerous weakness.
- Load path and calculation notes
- Compliance with applicable standards
- Technical and economic optimisation
