A Lahore-based practice shaped by site, material, and craft.

We are an architectural design practice based in Lahore, Pakistan. Our wide range of services include architectural design, interior design, landscape design, design consultancy, and project management. At Ghayyoor Obaid Architects, we strive to reflect and mould the prevailing cultural and intellectual undercurrents present in our society — be they modern, post-modern, or regional in context. Our intention is not to follow but to lead.

Within a period of 35 years since our inception in 1987, we have completed over six hundred projects, with about fifty more either under construction or on the drawing board. The key to our growth lies not only in a different and progressive approach towards design, but also in a conscious professional follow-up of projects during execution and after their completion. We rejoice in the knowledge that there is a long way to go, with many more opportunities to explore and that the challenges we encounter will transform into assets.
