What happens next

Three steps,
no sales funnel.

01

We read it, not a bot

Your message goes to the studio inbox. An architect reads it — there is no qualification form and no sales call before you speak to someone who can answer.
02

We come back with questions or a fee

If the brief is clear enough, you get the services you need, a stage programme and a fee. If it is not, you get the two or three questions that would make it clear.
03

Usually within two working days

Abu Dhabi runs Monday to Friday. A message sent over the weekend is answered early in the following week.

the brief.

BRIEF
Where we are

Two studios,
one practice.

Abu Dhabi runs the projects and the approvals. Cortina is where the practice started, and where the European work still sits.
United Arab Emirates

Abu Dhabi

Office 2nd Floor, Lamar Building
Al Nahyan Camp, Abu Dhabi, UAE

The head office. Fit-Out, interiors, engineering, project management and all UAE authority submissions — DMT, ADDC, Estidama and Civil Defence — run from here.

Italy

Cortina d'Ampezzo

Via Roma 19
Cortina d’Ampezzo (BL), Italy
The European studio, where the practice began in the 1980s. Alpine and European work, and the design culture the Gulf projects are still built on.
Worth including

Four things that
make the first reply useful.

None of these are required. Each one removes a round of emails.

The site

Plot number, emirate or city, and the plot area if you have it. A location changes the code, the climate response and the approvals route more than anything else you can tell us.

What you want built

Villa, majlis, hotel, office, fit-out. One line is enough at this stage — we are not asking for a brief document.

Where you are in the process

Idea, plot purchased, concept already drawn, or a design that needs an Architect of Record. This decides which services you actually need.

Your programme

A target handover date, a Ramadan or Eid constraint, a lease expiry. Dates shape the approvals strategy, so tell us early rather than late.
Not ready to write yet

Have a look at
the work first.

Twenty-four projects across seven countries, and the nine disciplines that deliver them under a single appointment. The form will still be here afterwards.
