OUR ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY
Over the past few years the idea of sustainable design has become a permanent part of our thoughts and now it has become reality through new approaches to architectural conception and construction. The approach of Design Proposal is not merely qualitative, it also forms part of a carefully thought out economic process.
- Integration into the Environment: A sustainable product is only viable if it is integrated into its settings, in the modest sense: Historical aesthetics and social integration are observed as conceptions that respect the mixture of functions within the urban setting.
- The Materials: Our architects are very conscious of their responsibility in selections of materials and energy systems. Projects pay special attention to the choice of construction material throughout their whole life-cycle from manufacture to potential recycling.


OUR STAFFING AND LOGISTICAL POLICY
The staff and contract personnel are selected on the basis of experience, talent and ability, dedication and a broad outlook on all aspects of the construction industry and cultural community.
Wherever possible, preference is given to Botswana Citizens when recruiting and employing staff.
