Architect + Partner
‘When I enter a building that we worked intensively on in the past, and I see how people use it and enjoy it, I feel extremely proud. Happy, you could say.’
At LIAG we design buildings that make people happy. Happiness gives satisfaction when it’s something you’ve worked hard for. Happiness is lasting when you can share it with others. That’s why all our projects focus on bringing people together and creating socially sustainable environments.
