“Good design should not only look beautiful. It should make everyday life feel better.”
Christabel Madu is an Architect, Interior Designer and Co-Founder of DACHSPACE, a design studio exploring architecture, interiors and spatial experiences through creativity, culture and thoughtful design.
Her approach to design begins with curiosity: understanding how people move, live, feel and experience a space, and turning complex design problems into clear, intentional ideas.


CO-FOUNDER
David Petersen
Architectural Designer and Co-Founder
“Spaces that are not just functional, but alive.”
David Petersen is a 2x award-winning Architectural Designer and Co-Founder of DACHSPACE, a design studio rooted in cultural excellence, with a vision that spans buildings, interiors, furniture and real estate.
His work moves fluidly from conceptual sketching and 3D visualization to full-scale architectural design and construction, with a rare blend of technical precision and artistic sensibility.


HOW WE WORK
Design that starts with people.
01
Culture first
Design rooted in the climate, culture and stories of the places we build in.
02
Considered, not styled
Every decision earns its place. Function, character and a strong visual identity, in balance.
03
Spaces that feel alive
Buildings and rooms that make everyday life feel better, not just look good in photographs.
OUR SCOPE
From sketch to building, and everything inside it.
Conceptual sketching, 3D visualization, design development, full-scale architectural design and construction, across buildings, interiors, furniture and real estate.


Buildings

Interiors

Real estate

BEYOND THE STUDIO
Teaching the next generation of designers.
Through our courses, a design community of 40,000+ and FUTURE FORMS, we share the process openly: how ideas become sketches, sketches become buildings, and small studios deliver like big ones.
