Patrickwaheed Design Consultancy

COPYRIGHT PATRICKWAHEED DESIGN CONSULTANCY LTD. Incorporated in Nigeria in 2006, pwdc primarily provides architectural and interior design services to both the private and public sector.

In 2007, pwdc added design-related product supply to its services. Starting out as the exclusive Nigerian reseller of sliding gear products from P.C.

Other related products have also been supplied on request. COPYRIGHT PATRICKWAHEED DESIGN CONSULTANCY LTD. Our immediate environment is a space that we subconsciously create and inhabit.
