Stefan Antoni, completed his Bachelor of Architecture degree at the University of Cape Town in 1985 with a first class pass. In 1986 he set up the architectural practice Stefan Antoni Architects, which today is known as SAOTA - Stefan Antoni Olmesdahl Truen Architects. Stefan Antoni is regarded as one of a number of architects who have contributed to setting a new standard of design and professionalism in the top end of the domestic market in South Africa.
SAOTA has a global footprint with projects on six continents. Their focus on achieving maximum value has also led to invitations to design, build and create highly prestigious projects. Increased exposure to the global marketplace has seen SAOTA flourish as cities and contexts allow for infinite inspiration which can be seen radiating from the approach to design.
