AHA (BE) was founded in 2012 by Aurélie Hachez. Today, AHA is a team of architects whose complementary skills cover a wide field of action. The office focuses on the design of projects of different scales ranging from furniture design, to interior renovation and the construction of new spaces and buildings. In the process of reflection, the projects are based on a sensitive approach to the place and the built and social context. They are formalised through the definition of details and material combinations, developed according to sustainable models and efficient construction techniques. The office believes in a collaborative approach, working with artists, craftsmen and other architects, and participating in international architectural juries and competitions.

The project "Herringbone" was nominated and received a special mention at the Belgian Architecture Prize 2015. Aurélie Hachez was a lecturer at TUDelft for the chair of urban architecture between 2019 and 2021. www.aureliehachez.com
