Kattima
Where we believe in the transformative power of adaptive reuse and sustainable architecture.
Architecture, Inspired by
Nature
At Studio Kattima, we are driven by a deep passion for sustainability and harnessing natural light and ventilation. Drawing inspiration from nature, our architectural designs seamlessly blend built structures into the environment they interact with.
Reviving Spaces, Preserving
History
Our expertise lies in transforming existing buildings into functional and beautiful spaces. From renovations to facade revamps, we breathe new life into old structures while preserving their historical and cultural significance.
Not Just Renovation,
Reinvention
We don’t just renovate; we create efficient planning concepts that optimize the use of space to enhance a structure’s value and the spatial experience. Our designs are tailored to meet your specific needs and aspirations, enabling the longevity of buildings with passive and circular design.
Bridging the Inside-Outside
Divide
A key aspect of our design ethos is blurring the boundaries between indoor and outdoor spaces. We believe that connecting people with nature can have a positive impact on their well-being. By seamlessly merging the ‘inside’ and the ‘outside’, we aim to create spaces that invite natural light, fresh air, and greenery into the built environment.
