Karachi-based architecture studio — residential and commercial design across Pakistan.
ZADS Architecture is a Karachi-based design studio founded by Abdullah Zamir. We provide residential and commercial architectural services across Pakistan — from custom homes and villas to offices and mixed-use buildings. Our work spans concept development, interior architecture, project management, and construction delivery.
We are a growing studio — see open roles.
What sets us apart is how we start. Before drawing a single line, we invest time in understanding who you are and how you live or operate. That clarity shapes better briefs, fewer revisions, and spaces that genuinely work — not just look good in photographs.

Projects before ZADS reflect selected professional experience and individual contributions while employed elsewhere. They are not presented as ZADS Architecture work.
