The Creative Studio, work and play.
The near decade long enjoyable journey of a-designtudio has brought about many forms of innovative architecture and interior design spaces, whilst forming cohesive collaborations between creative individuals.
About & Why - a-designstudio.
a-designstudio is a young and dynamic practice that works across all architectural disciplines. Our experience encompasses the following sectors: residential; hospitality; masterplanning; retail; health; education; public; commercial; interiors; mixed use; landscaping; and industrial. Working in both the private and public sectors, we have a long experience of delivering high value projects on time and to budget.
From inception the practice was unorthodox, hence it was imperative to have a firm that designed as a studio. The term “studio” is extremely critical in this context. “Studio” is generally associated with the creative field. In architecture exchange of multiple ideas especially in a studio environment has the potential to greatly enhance the final outcome. The design process looked to transcend the obvious to create a more pleasurable and sensorial experience, buildings that celebrate life and thereby make strong statements, statements that create a sense of identity not only for themselves but also their users. What was critical in achieving this was to create an environment which encouraged discussion.
With the average age of the studio being under 30, a lot of fresh ideas are thrown onto the table, with results that create ‘new’ spaces that stimulate as well as address the core idea of architecture being experiential. The spirit of speculation manifests itself into strategic processes which enable projects to evolve from conceptual ideas to sophisticated finished products. This process based rigor can be sensed in all the projects. Regardless of the scale, the ambition for each project is the same; this ambition is laced with a certain sensibility, a sensibility that best helps us achieve new spatial and formal effects.
a-designstudio is a young architectural company, who think outside the box by living outside the box. We have an informal work environment where we continue having fun doing what we love best – designing, drawing, and building spaces.
Our firm is characterised by creativity, high energy, and a unifying team spirit. Additionally, we are dedicated to creating and maintaining a cool workplace where we want to be, doing work that is important to us and interesting. Most of all, each building should be an experiment, an experience, and an accomplishment.
