The office developed a methodology for regional planning and pre-design research based on probing and integrating information from other disciplines(archaeology, anthropology, botany, ecology, etc.) This methodology we now call "Total Landscape Management" and "Landscape Literacy". Such endeavor takes a lot of our time as architects, in order to acquire skills outside the architectural field. We can say that we have a permanent ongoing project to understand the natural and built environments of Jordan, without a specific client, and we do not wait for a site plan to start working on as usually done in the standard process of post-contract architectural service.
