設計理念 Design Philosophy

建筑是一個復雜的主題，它的所有單個元素都是具有可塑性的，且設計過程涉及許多方面。建筑不僅要解決指定的功能性需求，還需要概念的實施，這是一種先進的思維，使項目最終的質量有所保證。為了嘗試不使建筑僅局限于一種類型風格，必須對有分歧的類型學上的問題采取不同方法，并且傾向于致力采取更優、更具特色、更具創新性的方法，最終每個成果都具有現代性。我們的創造力，和我們付出的努力及在殘酷的市場條件中獲取的經驗一樣，使我們創造了多個成功項目，完成了各類工作。

我們相信建筑可以帶來改變并產生巨大的影響，無論它是涉及一個小家庭、學校里的小孩還是使用大型公共建筑的市民?？臻g是被塑造出來的，但它也塑造使用者，所以我們必須對設計負責，為影響使用者并令他們敞開心扉而努力。堅固（firmitas）、實用（utilitas）、美觀（venustas）在其每一項建筑師作品中得到體現，這取決于設計師的性格特點。Proah選擇了可能更艱難的道路——我們相信各個因素之間是平衡的。耐久性、功能和美學必須相互協調，相得益彰。我們不能因為只重視任何一個要素而忽略其他元素。有時，藝術元素須與我們的意識思維相互運用，才能達到這種平衡。

我們需要不斷努力，在往后的工作中做的更好。我們需要時刻銘記作出負責設計的原則——對使用者、環境、社會、審美標準及我們作為建筑師和作者的尊嚴負責。

Architecture is approached as a complex topic, where all its individual elements are formative and the design process is all encompassing. It includes not only solving the given functional requirements, but also concept implementation, a progressive idea that gives the project its final quality. While not attempting to limit itself to only one type of project, the divergence of typologies requires an individual approach to each problem, with a tendency to be better, diあerent, more innovative, and the final result is contemporary in every aspect. Our creativity, as well as dedicated work and acquired experience through relentless market conditions, have created a great number of successful projects and finished work of a wide spectrum.

We believe that architecture can make changes and strong impact, whether it communicates to a small family house owner, children in schools or people using large scale public buildings.Space is shaped, but it also shapes the user, so we are dedicated to responsible designing,trying to educate the user and open his mind. Firmitas, Utilitas et Venustas are living in every architects work , it just depends on his character what will prevail. Proah has chosen maybe the harder path- we believe in the balance between the elements. Durability, function and aesthetics must be in compliance. Neither one element can be more important and outweigh the others. The artistic elements sometimes must be harnessed with our conscious mind to make this balance possible.

This is a continuous effort and we strive to make our work better with every new project,keeping in mind our principle of responsible design- responsible to user, surroundings, society,aesthetic criterion and our own dignity as architect and author.
