about
As an international architecture and engineering consultancy based in the UAE, Sense is specialized in bespoke private and commercial projects. We partner with clients and investors to transform their dreams and visions into reality.
Expertise
Our philosophy is based on the belief that every space has a soul and that our task is to reveal it. Through careful listening to the client’s needs and an in-depth analysis of the context, we seek to create projects that are not only aesthetically pleasing, but also functional, sensitive, and capable of evoking deep emotions. We use the senses as a guide to define spaces: sight, to create harmonious and suggestive compositions; hearing, to design acoustically comfortable environments; touch, to choose natural and pleasant materials; that evoke memories and sensations; and taste, to create sophisticated and immersive atmosphere that trascend time.

Belief
– Perception: Our belief is that Design is a process that involves continuous refinement of our perception of cultural, social and physical context. Only a clear perception can stimulate sensitivity and turn into a spatial intuition. We seek a vision that translates into a multitude of experiences, involving all human senses.
– Meaning: Design process is a permanent dialogue – between form and function, memory and vision, designer and society. As the expressive content of our surroundings changes at an ever-increasing pace, we believe that listening is a fundamental act in a quest for essence. Sense carries a welcoming attitude towards dialogue, as a tool to select not what is loudest, but what has meaning.
– Direction: Architecture is a quest beyond what’s visible. We value a space in terms of memory, emotion, connection, embracing an approach rooted in sensitivity and guided by purpose. Direction is not a rigid state of mind, but a comprehensive state of vision that embraces complexity and gives it sense.
