Frankenfeld & King Architects – Cape Town

Frankenfeld & King Architects is a dynamic and enthusiastic design partnership, established in Cape Town in 1995 by founding partners Andrew King and Peter Frankenfeld. An increased involvement in projects in the Southern Cape led to the establishment of a second office in Knysna, with each partner managing one of the offices.

A third partner, Roshan Nagin, was brought on board to help manage the expanding practice, and is currently based in the Cape Town office. Our clients range from national and local government departments, institutions, commercial firms, industrialists and developers, to private homeowners – giving us full and varied project experience. Each project is treated with the same enthusiasm and professionalism, regardless of size or budget.

We are committed to broad-based black economic empowerment, and are currently Level 4 contributors with 100% procurement recognition. We are registered service providers with all the relevant national and local authorities, and members of the Green Building Council – the latter reinforcing our commitment to a sustainable built environment.

Frankenfeld & King Architects boasts excellent working relationships with other professionals and contractors, but above all, we pride ourselves on our record of satisfied clients.
