One Roof. One Standard.
A Pakistan-based architecture and engineering practice delivering design, engineering and management across ten jurisdictions.
About Us
We are an Islamabad based architecture and engineering consultancy with a portfolio across four continents in residential, commercial, industrial and institutional work.
We hold planning and architecture, structure, MEP, building information modelling and project management within a single practice.
We are known for coordinated documentation, defensible design, and delivery under one accountable appointment.
Islamabad
Our process
Designed to be defensible.
Our work is the result of coordination resolved before it reaches site. Interfaces are settled in the federated model, clash detection is recorded prior to issue, and every design is signed by a professional licensed in its jurisdiction. We do not issue what cannot be built.
The Practice
Cornerstone is a team of architects, engineers and modellers working to the codes of ten jurisdictions and signing to the standards of each.
- Planning & Architecture

Values
Five commitments govern how we engage every client, consultant and contractor. They are not aspirations; they are the standards against which we hold ourselves accountable on every appointment.
Integrity
We give clients our honest technical judgement, including when it is not the answer they hoped for. Recommendations are made on merit, never on convenience or commercial advantage.
Dedication
We commit to the outcome, not merely the deliverable. Our involvement continues through construction until the design performs as intended on site.
Respect
For our clients' objectives and constraints, for our colleagues across the wider project team, and for the communities and environments in which our buildings stand.
Responsiveness
Design questions do not wait for the next scheduled meeting. We answer quickly, resolve early, and keep the programme moving.
Client service
A named point of contact, clear reporting and no surprises. Clients should always know exactly where their project stands.
Working to the codes and standards of ten jurisdictions, including:
- IEC — International Electrotechnical Commission
- 01
- IEEE — Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
- 02
- NFPA — Fire and life safety provisions
- 03
- ASHRAE — Mechanical standards
- 04
- NEC — National Electrical Code, United States
- 05
- SBC — Saudi Building Code
- 06
- PEC — Pakistan Engineering Council
- 07
- PCATP — Pakistan Council of Architects & Town Planners
- 08
- LOD 400 — BIM documentation standard
- 09
Standards
A single quality framework across every appointment.
Code compliance
Every design is developed against the codes applicable in the project jurisdiction and independently checked before issue.
Design review and verification
Deliverables pass through structured internal review at each stage gate, with interdisciplinary coordination verified in the federated model.
Documentation and QA/QC
Calculation records, equipment schedules, load calculations, estimations and take-offs, structured to withstand third-party review.
Sustainability and performance
Energy modelling and building performance simulation are integrated into design rather than treated as a compliance afterthought.
Commercial discipline
Estimation, quantity surveying and value engineering run alongside design development.
Our Mission
We are committed to design that is buildable, compliant and commercially disciplined from the outset.
