Although its team is capable of producing impressive freehand rendering for presentations, ATSA Architects also combines computer 3D rendering for impressive, realistic multiple images to enable clients to view their of various projects before they are built.
Over the past two decades, ATSA Architects has grown from a small outfit to a renowned company with a staff strength of 80. It has carried out numerous architectural design works in all states in Malaysia. With its involvement in many projects throughout the country, it has seen the benefits to establish branch offices in Penang, Kuching, Kota Kinabalu, including a practice in Sharjah, UAE. It is ATSA Architects’ philosophy to always serve clients with quality customer service wherever they are located, thus the reason for setting up onsite offices in the bustling new townships of Bintulu, Sarawak and Sandakan, Sabah. There are also plans to expand to the southern peninsula with a new branch office in Johor’s Iskandar Region.
