KAGVRV is a Vancouver based design practice working through the selective reduction of architecture's constituent elements, establishing a precise hierarchy between what supports and what is allowed to emerge. Material, structure, enclosure and representation are disciplined not toward minimalism as an end, but toward the intensification of a principal subject.
Alongside built work, the practice engages in research on sovereignty, Indigenous futures, and planetary urbanism, informing how we approach material, landscape, and space at every scale.
Practice Areas:
Laneway Housing
Single Family Residential
Hospitality (Roastery, Bakery, Café)
Civic and Indigenous Projects
Sculpture and Installations
Urban and Territorial Research
Colin Berg Mbugua Bachelor of Science in Architecture : Politecnico di Milano, Italy
