Our company is celebrating 15 years of operating in Mombasa. We work closely and collaboratively with our clients to design residential homes that are modern, friendly, and feel at home in Kenya.
Whether you are tearing down and rebuilding an urban parcel of land or starting from an undeveloped property, we evaluate the site and coordinate with our team of consultants to get rid of any obstacles to building.

During the process, we help you find a builder and collaborate with them early on.
