Material and craftsmanship define the architectural practice of andyrahman architect. Architecture is developed through a deep engagement with material—particularly earth and brick—treated as active mediums with physical, historical, and cultural agency in shaping space.
Design is driven by hands-on experimentation and close collaboration with local artisans. Through tectonic exploration, modular systems, and construction techniques, architectural knowledge emerges from the act of making, where craftsmanship becomes a central mode of inquiry.
Through this material–craft dialogue, architecture is framed as an honest and contextual practice, where brick functions as both medium and language, shaping spatial expression through skill, precision, and sensitivity to material.
