Kevin Mark Low's Smallprojects conceptualizes, designs and builds things primarily architecture, although there are many side things that concern him. Always focusing on relevant design, architectural economics and spatial technology related to a particular context. From unique home designs for unique clients with an emphasis on what is often referred to as garden homes. Covering everything from home design, building and utility related planning, project identity, building and product design, and spaces that cannot be called landscape or architecture but are in between.

For him, big and small work that interests him is about what they all have in common rather than focusing on what makes them different. Smallprojects is less about the size of things and more about the intimate relationships that bind them. Kevin Mark Low characterizes his identity as being completely non-corporate and subverting dominant paradigms. Ignoring the theatrical rather than the dramatic. He says Smallprojects is about all possible contexts.
