Counterspace is an architectural practice dedicated to articulating expressions of hybrid identities and spaces, with a focus on African and Islamic conditions that are both indigenous and diasporic. It is particularly preoccupied with the complex relationships between territories and places. The practice is lauded for its innovative design, research, and educational pursuits.
Inspired by its location, Johannesburg, Counterspace is committed to developing design form, particularly for the continent – through design research, publishing, pedagogy, built things, buildings, and other forms of architecture.
