Method The building construction is a complicated and relatively long process. A process in which communication between teams is essential. Roffaa guarantees that we enjoy the process of designing and have fun in designing with all involved parties. We firmly believe that a good atmosphere and an open communication in a team leads to better results. The communication is assisted by making physical models and building our story with diagrams and sketches to bring our collaborating partners along in the design process.
Mission The impact of the build environment on our lives is enormous. Buildings determine how we live together and how we experience our lives as individuals, and with building comes the responsibility to create a system where we handle raw materials in a more advanced way. To achieve this it’s essential that we innovate our cooperation with others. We therefore design meaningful architecture, by which every project, even on the smallest scale, actively contributes to the greater importance. The goal is to continue innovate in our sector. To achieve this we have to work together, join forces, share knowledge and above all dare.
"Look at our project 'Floating Bricks House' to see our first prototype house"
In our practice we are continuously working on our New Material library. These could be materials that are new in our industry but are well developed in other sectors. Biobased / natural materials, circulair materials or residual materials also has our interest. This means Roffaa takes material into the design from an early stage and could even be the starting point of a design.
