Our studio is currently working on a variety of new endeavors for institutions in and around Philadelphia, and in Ann Arbor. Through all of these projects, we are exploring with our colleagues and clients new ways of fabricating, modeling, 3D printing, documenting and communicating our design work. Our approach to design is iterative and collaborative, integrating systems and structure with the architecture. Although all of our work focuses on sustainability, we are excited to be expanding that to our first net-zero ready project.
