Our Mission
Founded in 1992, KEE Architecture has a diverse portfolio in architecture, interior design, and urban planning. We pursue an architecture of ideas, soundly executed and thoroughly serviced. Our method is centered on the needs of the client, on developing appropriate architectural solutions and on building within clients means and schedules. At KEE, we believe architecture and design should be functional and efficient, as well as beautiful and stunning to the viewer.
