dhk Architects operates a multidisciplinary design practice spanning architecture, urban design, interior design, and landscape architecture, with dual studios in Cape Town and Johannesburg. The tech stack is dominated by Autodesk products (Revit, AutoCAD, Navisworks, Construction Cloud) plus SketchUp, Rhino, and Enscape—a configuration typical of large architecture firms managing complex building information workflows. Active hiring is concentrated in design roles at senior and mid levels, with 9 positions posted in the last 30 days, suggesting capacity expansion as project complexity (scan-to-BIM workflows, model federation, clash detection) deepens.
dhk Architects is an Africa-based design studio established in 1998 through a merger of two practices, now operating as part of the 10N Collective under Egis Group. The firm employs 51–200 people and serves commercial, residential, hospitality, retail, healthcare, and education sectors, with project delivery spanning multiple countries. Work covers the full arc from conceptual design through on-site construction administration. The studio emphasizes contextually integrated design paired with technical rigor in building information management, 3D visualization, and construction delivery. Current focus areas include BIM-enabled workflows (execution planning, scan-to-BIM conversion, model federation) and managing compliance and environmental complexity in urban projects.
