Architectural design · Facade engineering

We design
buildings, to the
edge of the

envelope.

Envelop is an architect-led practice. We take projects from concept design and consultancy through to the facades, glazing and materials that make them real.

01 — Practice

Every building meets the sky somewhere. We design the whole of it — from the plan and the brief to the line where structure, glass and daylight resolve into a considered envelope.

Envelop Design Limited is an indigenous Nigerian company spanning architectural design and consultancy, facade engineering and construction, and high-value aluminium and glass solutions at competitive prices. Inaugurated in December 2017 and in full operation since 2023, we are a young, dynamic and experienced team that takes a project from concept and planning through to the systems, shop drawings and buildable scope — so the building that gets built is the one that was designed.

02 — Vision & mission
Vision

To become the leading provider of innovative and sustainable facade solutions in Nigeria — setting new standards in quality, design and customer satisfaction.

Mission

To deliver exceptional facade design and construction by leveraging our expertise, creativity and cutting-edge technology — creating high-value aluminium and glass solutions that enhance the aesthetics and functionality of buildings, while staying affordable and sustainable.

C.05

Building materials supply

Sourcing and supply of aluminium systems, architectural glass, gaskets and hardware — specified to the design, not to whatever is on the shelf.

Site & installation support

From setting-out to stack joints — guidance through installation so the detail that was drawn is the detail that gets built.

05 — How we work

An envelope is resolved in sequence — never improvised on site.

01

Brief & feasibility

Understand the architecture, the budget and the constraints before a system is chosen.

02

Design & selection

Set the grid, the sightlines and the glazing system the design actually needs.

03

Engineering & detailing

Resolve performance, junctions and tolerances into coordinated details.

04

Fabrication & supply

Cutting lists, material orders and procurement aligned to the documented scope.

05

Install & handover

Support on site through installation, commissioning and a clean handover.

06 — Our team

A team built around the work

Our people are our greatest asset — a group of young, dynamic and experienced professionals spanning the architectural and facade disciplines.

Designers

Creative individuals who bring innovative concepts to life, so each project is both functional and beautiful.

Engineers

Experts who secure the structural integrity and technical feasibility of every design using current engineering practice.

Project managers

Leaders who oversee every aspect of delivery — on time, within budget and to the highest standard.

Installers

Dedicated hands who turn drawings into built reality, working meticulously for precision and quality on site.

07 — Systems & language

We speak the
language of the facade.

From profiled aluminium systems to the build-up of a single glazed unit — the work lives in the detail. These are the terms we design and procure to every day.
