Dmj Architects

Founded in 1965, DMJ Architects is a Nairobi-based firm with three principal architects, supported by a team of experienced architectural assistants and administration staff. Elegance, sound construction and cost effectiveness. These are the mainstays of our design philosophy, combined with sensitivity to the landscape and climate, and use of local materials. While we strive to influence our East African clients to adopt European trends and standards, we ensure that the practicalities of constructing in Africa are not sacrificed. Our design philosophy encompasses long term usability, environmental awareness and flexibility, taking account of the changing needs of the modern world – both commercial and domestic. The firm's experience covers much of Africa, including Kenya, Tanzania, Ethiopia, Uganda, Botswana, Rwanda, Sudan, Somalia, Namibia and Ghana. DMJ is also associated with architectural firms based in the United Kingdom, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, Kenya and Botswana.
