We are a conscientious, meticulous and dedicated firm that gives attention to client needs. We are a full service firm specializing in architecture, urban design, interior design and landscaping. Our extensive experience of residential, leisure, mixed-use and commercial office development (in KZN) ensures a holistic approach, which facilitates inventive, flexible and effective design solutions. From the outset, we employ a collaborative approach to project working and have considerable experience of ‘design partnering’ with many of the leading consultants and design professionals. This process allows our team to assimilate and apply the knowledge and skills gained through collaborative working to all projects, addressing the specifics of local context and identity and thus ensuring a solution appropriate to place. Hard Black Architects has evolved an holistic approach to design challenges that takes advantage of our multi-disciplinary nature and our extensive experience across a range of sectors. Rather than being constrained by a particular architectural style, our creative approach is tailored to each client’s requirements and evolves as the design relationship progresses to provide effective and inspiring solutions. Our in-depth understanding of the commercial and practical realities inherent in realizing a creative design and the management of the client’s expectations throughout this process is one of our core strengths. As a guiding principle, we strive at all times to improve the environments in which we are privileged to work; the architecture we contribute and the buildings that evolve from our intervention will only ever be worthwhile if they contribute positively to their surroundings. Our goal is the simple art of place-making.
