Architecture is this thing.
We do it our way by blending the collective backgrounds of our studio members in architecture, art, industrial design, craft and construction into our designs. Around our studio table we discuss, ridicule, agree, reject and refine design ideas and iterations in service of creating the most awesome one. Nothing and no one is above or below it, as it should be.
At our core we believe that merging open design discussions, aesthetic and construction detailing, shared expertise and personnel continuity throughout the entirety of a project is imperative to delivering an architecture that remains true to its concept without undue compromise. We believe that every project, from an intimate family residence to a robust industrial facility to a simple code review, is an opportunity.
Beyond that, we’re simple creatures who enjoy being ourselves. We enjoy the process of design and the challenge of turning ideas into thoughtful, well-crafted spaces that contribute something intentional and meaningful to the places they belong.
WOA (woah!) does a thing.
