THE PRACTICE
Beglin Woods is a leading architectural and design practice with a broad portfolio of work around
East Africa generated by its offices in Nairobi.
David Beglin and Simon Woods have an office of over 20 architectural, technical and administrative
staff. Both partners act as principal designers, and are closely involved in the design development of
all their Projects. The buildings are often complex and sophisticated in function, but are built from
a simple range of carefully selected quality and maintenance free materials.
Beglin Woods have developed an aesthetic and functional architectural style over the years in
practice in East Africa and have gained experience in most sectors of the economy including Tourism,
Commerce, Industry, Health Care, Research and Education.
We aim to develop building
designs quickly but carefully, to allow
the maximum time possible for detailed
design development. Our clients are
encouraged to become involved in the
design process from the start, as their
detailed input is essential in the evolution
of the building design. The production
team works extremely quickly once
a concept is agreed, and can often
produce tender documents on large
projects within weeks of appointment.
We are however extremely flexible at all
stages of the project, and ensure that all
our clients needs are full incorporated.
Our computer model generating
facilities are greatly valued by our clients
who are keen to participate in a three
dimensional concepts as well as photo
realistic images of their projects at a
very early stage. It also allows us to offer
extremely short pre-contract design time,
and sophisticated post-contract financial
monitoring and project management.
Each project, however small,
is designed, detailed and built to the
highest possible standards. The best
designed and constructed buildings will
always be readily in the market more
than other less well-designed buildings.
All our buildings are designed to be
aesthetically pleasing, enjoyable to use,
economical and capable of adaptation
and extension. Some of our buildings are
nearly 14 years old, and demonstrate the
benefits to our clients in getting it right
the first time!
The economics of building in a
developing country creates an extremely
tight market, because of rapidly
fluctuating building and finance costs.
Prices per unit area can vary greatly
from region and the choice of building
materials, structural systems and finishes
the final budget. We instruct our
consultants and quantity surveyors to
maintain a strict eye on the project
budget during both pre-contract and
post-contract design stages.
The design team pays particular
attention to the economies of construction
at both design and contract drawing
stages. During construction, variations
and fluctuations are carefully monitored
and client approval is sought before
contract sums are increased. Financial
appraisals, including reviews of
originally projected income figures, are
carried out at regular intervals during
construction, and finances are adjusted
accordingly. Teams of consultants are
carefully selected, based on their project.
Working carefully with the client and the
consultants, suitable structural, finishing
and services, systems are selected for
each immediate suitability to undertake
a certain item, as we are always testing
the availability and economy of materials
and services within the market place.
Project correspondence and
documentation are aimed at giving our
clients highly Professional service, which
records and documents every single
contract matter in clear legal contract
terminology. Great care is always taken
to understand building contracts carefully
in every detail and all contractual
correspondence is kept up to date on
a on a daily basis. We believe we are
one of the most professional Architectural
firms in East Africa and are constantly
striving to produce quality buildings on
time and on budget.
“We love our work, and always aim to give all our clients a first class service and quality buildings that are value for money”

New office wings
The United Nations compound is a beauti-
ful “green lung” on the outskirts of Kenya’s
capital city. More than 600 indigenous tree
species are found there as well as many
species of birds and small mammals. Al-
ready rainwater is harvested, waste wa-
ter recycled and wetlands maintained. All
buildings are cooled by natural ventilation
and office waste is separated and recycled.
The UN new building takes environmental
sustainability to a new level. Four buildings
linked by airy walkways, flooded with natural
light and with green areas individually land-
scaped and theme, can accommodate 1200
staff. Solar panels cover the roof space, auto-
mated low energy lighting illuminates work-
spaces and energy efficient computers sit on
desks. Rainwater is collected from the roofs
to feed the fountains and ponds at the four
entrances and sewage is treated in a state-
of-the-art aeration system and recycled to ir-
rigate the beautifully landscaped compound.

New headquarters and residential complex
The headquarters is a working village
designed as a group of individual working
units in which several departments are
located. These units are clustered around
a central courtyard, an arrangement which
encourages a high instance of spontaneous
meetings between staff members and an
environment of tranquillity and
elegance and which reflects in many
ways some of the philosophical and
ideological convictions of the developer.
The extensive use of water and
landscaping ensures that the single storey
buildings will soon be given excellent
sun-shading from deep roof overhangs
further enhanced by trees and plants.
A great amount of time exploring materials,
finishes, patterns, sculptures, works of
art and carvings ensure that each of the
buildings can be given specific
interior design treatment reflecting
certain areas of African culture.

New office building and banking hall
COMPLETED PROJECTS
Imperial Bank is a rapidly expanding local
bank whose headquarters building is shown
here. Due to shape and size, the quarter
acre site was previously considered inviable
by the market. The site presented a real
challenge to Beglin Woods to fit the required
accommodation in a multi- level design.
Despite the challenging site the project brief
was to contain 3 floors of an administrative
office, a banking hall and up to 50 car park
spaces for customers and bank executives.
In order to do this, the building hovers
over an area intended for car parking, and
allows access by ascending into the building.
Interiors are granite tiled with full height
glass partitions which allows light to pass
through the building into an internal
atrium containing the main banking
hall. The architects were responsible
for all interiors, furniture and fittings.

PROJECT PROPOSAL
The Bank development is set on a
prestigious corner plot in central Kinshasa.
The site is quite tight at only slightly more
than half an acre, and the design has
been based on a formal parking grid in
order to maximise the parking available
at both basement and ground level.
A six-meter parking grid has been established,
which provides the main structure with
an economical structural grid to support
the eight floors above ground level. The
building has been designed on the basis
of an oval, which is also shaped vertically
to create an organic shape that works
extremely well on a corner plot building. The
outstanding shape and design will become
an iconic landmark in Kinshasa and will
become a wonderful advert for the Bank.

PROJECT PROPOSAL
Beglin Woods were commissioned to design
a office block on an extremely tight site with
hard rock at 1.5 m below soil levels.
The challenge was to ensure that the large
area of executive offices had sufficient parking
despite the soil conditions. A decision was
therefore made to design the offices above
the three storey ground parking silo.
The building will have a ground floor banking
floor and a 1st storey pedestrian connection
with existing office building on site.
Another challenge was to disguise the above
ground parking levels without great expense
to the client. This was done by introduction of
concrete screens which are angled to also act
as a sun shade for the cars.
