ABOUT AINA EXTENDED
──────────────────────────────
Aina Extended is an evolution of our original Aina studio – created in close collaboration with cherished client, Delia Tafler, who envisioned a heightened, more expansive form rooted deeper in nature. She offered the conceptual direction, and we sculpted it into being.

This version extends the cliff-perch concept skyward. The central staircase acts as a grounding spine, giving the space a powerful entrance through terrain. An asymmetrical lower deck and spacious interior lend balance to its striking silhouette.
