Architecture should speak of its time and place, but yearn for timelessness.

About us  /  01

Established in 1987, our practice has a long-standing presence in Surrey and Greater London, with our offices being based in Esher, Surrey. We specialise in crafting bespoke residential designs tailored for private clients. Our approach centres around creating liveable, functional spaces that our clients can call a home. By deeply understanding the lifestyle and aspirations of our clients, we strive to design homes that not only reflect architectural value but also enrich daily living. While we are respectful of the history and style of existing buildings, we are equally passionate about exploring innovative and exciting ways to design for modern life.

About Porous Delab

Porous Delab is a global architecture studio working across architecture, interiors, product design, and visualization to create immersive environments where built form connects deeply with emotion and experience. We approach every project with creativity and technical precision, ensuring designs that are both timeless and contemporary.

Maaz Khan

Maaz Khan obtained his Bachelor of Architecture from Taylor’s University, Malaysia in 2021, graduating with Second Class Honors. During his studies, he was placed on the Dean’s List for three consecutive years, and his final year project was awarded the Future Thinkers Award.

Upon completion of his degree, he returned to Karachi and joined Identity Design Studio, an architectural firm, where he gained experience working on a range of residential, commercial, interior, and recreational projects. One of the notable projects he contributed to was Royal Fashion at Hyderi, Karachi. After this intensive practice, he established his own studio, Porous Delab, in September 2023. The practice reflects his growing interest in contextual, adaptive design, and his commitment to creating spaces that are both functional and meaningful.
