Sanjiv Malhan, an Australia-trained architect and principal
at Office For International Architecture (OFIA), is
passionately eloquent about his core beliefs and philosophy:
“It is every architect’s bounden duty to take
to heart the potential that our profession offers.
And use every opportunity we get to explore this
unique intersection of spatial artistry, technology,
human civilization and above all, imagination.”
These are the keystone beliefs that inspire Mr Malhan
and his team to go out and create the spaces they do.
“Mapping a client’s brief to a space
and then using the tools of my profession to
go out and exceed it, each and every time, is a
given. My challenge comes in trying to see how
I can help both client and the space to excite
and inspire each other and then get my team to
give shape to that new vision.”
Mr Malhan’s training and experience enable OFIA to
assemble an unmatched team of international and
local experts to deliver the most challenging tasks and
projects.
