why iSD architects?
ISD refers to Innovation, Sustainability, and Durability. At ISD Architects we challenge the status-quo. We challenge the mindset that created the status-quo.
We believe that the current paradigm is as much responsible for the dire crises society is facing today as the harm itself: lack of decent housing, inequality, degradation of resources and the environment, and the object-centered design instead of human-centered creativity.
We invite residential developers to consider investing in better way to design buildings. This in our view isn't a cost issue. It's a commitment issue; a commitment to align with who we really are: creative, cost-effective, and responsible human beings.
Issam (Sam) A. Shukor OAA, AAA, AIBC, MAA, CPHD, is the principal and senior architect at ISD Architects. He is a Certified Passive House Designer with exceptional design skills and wide range of expertise. Sam likes to call himself the Innovative Sketch Designer. For him sketching is more than presentations or visions. They are a source for iterations and an engine of inspiration. Sam believes that creativity is a duty of the architect not a choice or a marketing tag. The source of creativity for him is not technical. It is the clients' needs and aspirations.

New Design Approach
When building, people often rely on their designer or architect to guide them through the creative design phase. However, many designers still follow conventional methods that can lead to uninspired solutions, delays in design permitting, and increased construction costs.
This is primarily due to a lack of correctly defining the design problem early on and a failure to consider the unique site and owner's requirements. To address these challenges, I offer an on-demand webinar that provides valuable insights on avoiding such scenarios. During the webinar, I discuss the risks involved at an early stage and offer strategies to create a comprehensive action plan that ensures a fixed budget, adheres to design and construction schedules, and ultimately provides peace of mind.
