Our Philosophy
" It is our job to understand not just the site and
the brief, but people, their lives and work. "
Nordon Jago Architects approaches projects from architectural
first principles—whether it’s a single house, a residential
development, a hospital, a sports facility or a government office.
Working broadly means we offer a unique response to every
project, because we don’t risk falling into a pattern of work.
We believe that architecture is a process in which creativity
cannot be divorced from the reality of engineering, approvals
and construction. We have always worked with the latest
technology to test our vision for its fit with real-world conditions.
Solving problems of all kinds and sizes in diverse areas promotes
agility and versatility. We can move between strategizing with a
developer about council approval for 180 units, and solving the
challenges of incorporating advanced medical equipment into
the design for a hospital.
Our clients see that agility expressed in the creative thinking
we apply to their projects, in the way our designs are paced
to the evolving approvals landscape, and in the way their
constructions proceed according to plan.
Founded in 1990, Nordon Jago Architects has grown to a team
of approximately 25 selected for their ability to take a brief, think
their way through a problem, communicate clearly with clients
and deliver designs that are intelligent and precise.
We are proud to have clients today who have been with us since
the beginning. We believe nothing could be a more powerful
indication of our commitment to collaborate on designs that
deliver.
