Project V Architecture is an international award-winning architecture studio based in Sarajevo and London. We create ecologically and socially sustainable buildings, interiors and places. The studio was founded by architects Vernes Causevic and Lucy Dinnen, who together bring over 30 years of experience across Bosnia and Herzegovina, the UK, and the Western Balkans.

The studio operates across a variety of sectors and scales, guided by a research and context-led approach to design. Our projects make meaningful, positive contributions to site, society, and the planet, with a strong emphasis on craftsmanship and the use of natural materials. The studio is recognised for the quality of both our ideas and built work. Alongside practice, the founders have taught and lectured internationally.
