The
methodology

Not a slogan.
A working model.

The CODE operates as a sequential process with built-in feedback loops. Each project follows the same logic and can be adapted to context, scale and complexity.

Explore the methodology

C

Conserve

Preserve existing material, structural and historical value.

Input — Existing fabric
Output — Conservation strategy

O

Observe

Systematic analysis and documentation before any design decision is made.

Input — Survey data
Output — Analytical model

D

Design

Translate analytical findings into decisions guided by context, constraints and purpose.

Input — Analytical brief
Output — Traced proposal

E

Execute

Precise realisation through controlled implementation and continuous verification.

Input — Technical docs
Output — Built outcome

Sequential

Each project progresses C → O → D → E. No phase is skipped.

Recalibration

Design and Execute phases can trigger a return to Observe, allowing decisions to be recalibrated.

Output

Every output must be: Readable — Traceable — Following system logic.
