We are a design focused and technology driven studio. Our portfolio of work encompasses luxury houses to public art installations and commercial interiors. We strive to design spaces with distinctive atmospheres and to produce impactful, humanistic work. We achieve this through careful material choice, sculpting of form, attention to tectonic details and use of computational methods.
The office is led by Ar Asami Takahashi and Dr Jason Lim who previously worked for renowned architectural offices/firms including Pritzker prize winner Toyo Ito & Associate, SANAA in Tokyo, Steven Holl in NY, Weiss/Manfredi in NY and Gramazio Kohler Research in Zurich.
Our Studio’s focus
Innovative design
This is our raison d'être. To produce exceptional designs.
We need to be excited and proud of what we do every day.
Intuitive design
We believe good design is simple, easy, and effortless. Great design is intuitively understood and experienced without explanation. Masterly of design lies in its effortless simplicity.
Material and tectonics
We believe material and tectonics are one of the most important elements in architecture that affect how we experience the space. We pay great attentions to colour, texture, compositions and details.
Sustainable design
We take this responsibility seriously. We use cutting edge simulation and analysis tools to visualize, quantify and evaluate the environmental impact of our designs. This science-based approach allows us to make informed and responsible decisions. We want to integrate analysis from the outset of design and set a precedent for practise.
Digital technology for efficiency and higher value
We use Building Information Modelling (BIM) for all projects including houses and interiors and apply computation where appropriate. Such technology enables us to work more efficiently and achieve design goals with more precision. We ensure our staff becomes fluent in Information Modelling and other digital skills, positioning us at the forefront of our industry.
We invite talented and passionate individuals to join us and share in our dreams. We look forward to hearing from you!
