When was AK Architects established?

AK Architects was established in 2020 by Azeem Khan, who founded the studio after professional experience across seven architectural firms and a previous role as Principal Architect.

What kind of projects does the studio take on?

The studio works across residential and commercial architecture, interior design, authority submission and approvals, and construction services — from the first sketch through to site.

Can the studio handle drawings and approvals together?

Yes. Design documentation and authority submission drawings are prepared by the same team, so the design intent carries through the approval stage without being reinterpreted.

Who leads a project day to day?

Every project is led personally by the founder, supported by the studio team through design, documentation and construction.

How do I start a project with AK Architects?

Send an inquiry through the contact page with the site, the brief, or simply the idea. The studio will respond to discuss scope and next steps.

A clear path from design to delivery

Architectural plans, material samples and a scale model arranged on a studio design desk

Architectural Design

Understanding what a project needs and developing a considered architectural response to it — early planning, design development and the drawings that carry an idea into something buildable.

Residential Design

Architecture for homes, resolved around how a family actually intends to live. Orientation, light, privacy, circulation and the relationship between inside and outside are worked through with the client before the plan is settled.

Commercial Design

Architecture for commercial buildings, planned around the way the space needs to function — access, movement, usable area and the practical requirements of the business it serves.

Interior Design

Interiors developed alongside the architecture — layout, joinery, lighting and material selection resolved together so the inside of a building follows the same intent as the outside.

Architectural plans and submission documents arranged with drafting tools

Authority Submission & Approval-Related Services

Professional experience with submission and approval-related processes involving authorities including CDA, RDA and LDA, preparing and coordinating the drawings and documentation a project requires.
