We managed our entire build from Manchester without visiting the site once until handover. Aalis Studios sent weekly video updates, handled every contractor headache, and delivered our 4-bedroom villa in Kiambu on time and within budget. I genuinely could not have done this without them.
From the first consultation, Arch. Vincent understood exactly what we wanted — and then pushed the design somewhere better than we imagined. Our duplex in Ngong Road has been admired by every visitor. The 3D visualisations meant no surprises whatsoever.
We needed a commercial office that positioned us as a premium firm. Aalis Studios delivered exactly that — Westlands clients walk in and immediately understand we are serious. The design was on-budget, county-approved without delays, and ready in 11 months.
Building a school in Kiambu involves layers of regulation I knew nothing about. Aalis Studios handled every approval — Ministry of Education, county, NCA — and our campus was built in 14 months from concept to opening day. Exceptional project management.
My family villa on the Rift Valley escarpment was a complex brief — hillside site, difficult access, extreme views. Aalis Studios produced a design that celebrates every challenge. The views are framed perfectly from every single room. Worth every shilling.
I was nervous about building from Toronto. Aalis Studios joined our WhatsApp group, gave us access to a shared project tracker, and not once did we feel out of the loop. Our home in Kahawa Sukari looks exactly like the 3D render. Exactly. I am still shocked.
