Complex Geometry Architecture
THINK NATURE
We’ve occasionally been challenged on the fact that we haven’t yet delivered a large-scale built project under our own name. While this is true, it’s important to understand the depth of experience that defines our team.
Our founder, Debbie Flevotomou, trained and worked at Foster + Partners, one of the world’s leading architectural practices, contributing to some of the most ambitious and complex projects globally. Beyond this, our directors and collaborators bring experience from major international firms and landmark developments — including airports, MULTI BILLIONS mega-projects, and cultural institutions. We have partnered with globally recognised organisations such as Mott MacDonald, David Morley Architects, and some of the largest development and construction companies in Saudi Arabia, allowing us to operate at the highest level and scale of international design and delivery.
We may be a boutique studio in name, but we operate through partnerships with some of the world’s most respected engineering, architecture, and development firms. This allows us to deliver innovative, technically advanced, and commercially viable solutions — at any scale.
At DFA, we’re not defined by what we’ve built under our own banner alone, but by the expertise, integrity, and capability we bring to every project — and by the visionary clients who trust us to lead with excellence.
Why THINK NATURE Matters
As a client, you’re not just investing in a building — you’re shaping an environment, a lifestyle, and a legacy.
THINK NATURE goes beyond conventional architecture to offer something far more meaningful: a design philosophy that places sustainability, well-being, and timeless beauty at its core. This visionary approach ensures that your project doesn’t just meet today’s standards — it leads the way into the future.
By choosing THINK NATURE, you’re choosing to create a space that enhances lives, respects the planet, and stands as a statement of forward-thinking design. It’s not just about how a building looks — it’s about how it feels, functions, and harmonises with the world around it.
We are here for the rebels who shape the world — the visionaries who want their buildings to speak, to lead, and to leave a meaningful impact. If that’s you, THINK NATURE is your movement.
For clients who value innovation, impact, and integrity, THINK NATURE offers a new way to build — responsibly, beautifully, and with purpose.

THINK NATURE – Sustainable, Context-Driven Design
Our signature THINK NATURE design process goes beyond sustainability — it’s a strategy for creating spaces that are resilient, resource-efficient, and deeply connected to their environment.
We use locally sourced materials and natural forms to reflect the identity of the site, enhance aesthetics, and reduce carbon footprint. This results in:
Lower material and logistics costs
Streamlined construction
Stronger planning support and community approval
A distinctive, cohesive architectural expression tailored to place
This method enables greater flexibility, improved accuracy, and long-term efficiency, ensuring your project is not only sustainable but commercially and culturally successful.
In short, when you work with Debbie Flevotomou Architects, you gain a partner who understands architecture not just as design — but as a tool for impact, innovation, and return on investment.
Let us help you shape a space that performs, inspires, and endures.
