As a spatial agency, Karakter identifies architecture as a dynamic process in which there needs to be inclusivity and efficient liason between parties as they play an important role. Our practise is derived from a simple analogy:

 

the site as a stage,

the community as a participating audience, and 

Karakter as the actor with an ambition to unite the former.

​

Karakter too is a multi-cultural practise with members from China, Malaysia, UK and Indonesia. Thus the usage of the Malaysian/Indonesian word karakter which is still pronounced as ‘character’ and defined as ‘actor’ to demonstrate our role. The logo is derived from Mandarin 角色.
