Architecture, Engineering, and Construction Under One Team
Our design and build service in Maputo puts architecture, engineering, and construction in a single integrated team. You get one contract, one programme, and one point of accountability — from the first sketch to the moment you get the keys — which is what lets us streamline project timelines instead of losing weeks between a designer and a contractor.
Because the team that draws the plans also engineers and builds them, design decisions are tested against real cost, real materials, and a real programme before they reach site. Moradias CD in Polana Caniço (2022–2023) was designed and built by SINERJI end to end — five detached homes shaped around cross ventilation, natural lighting, and shading landscaping, with the interiors delivered under the same contract.
Why Choose Design & Build`
One point of accountability — No hand-off between architect and contractor, and no gap for problems to fall into.
Streamlined timelines — Design, engineering, and construction overlap where they safely can, which shortens the overall programme.
Cost settled early — Buildability and cost are tested during design, so fewer surprises appear on site.
Complete on handover — Interior design, finishes, lighting, and material selection can all sit inside the same contract.
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about how design and build works with us.
What does "design and build" actually mean?
One integrated team handles architecture, engineering, and construction under a single contract, instead of you appointing a designer and a builder separately.
Can I use you for design only, or construction only?
Yes. Many clients take the full service, but we also take on design-only commissions and build-only contracts.
Does it cover interiors and renovation as well as new buildings?
Yes. Interior design and the rehabilitation of existing buildings are both part of what we deliver.
Which project types does it apply to?
Residential, commercial, and industrial — the design-and-build model works across all three.
