A manifestation of duality, precision, and functionality; our studio stands as a testament to the belief that design isn't a mere subjective art form but a realm where there exists a 'right' and 'wrong.' This belief permeates every inch of our renovated space, where black and white serve as our foundational palette—a deliberate choice to embody the essence of duality.


Upon stepping into our studio, you're immediately greeted by a space where contrasting hues of black and white converge seamlessly. These colors aren't just aesthetic choices; they embody the yin and yang of design principles. The depth of black exudes seriousness, offering the office the gravitas it deserves, while the purity of white complements it, evoking a sense of clarity and openness. Yet, we've integrated nuances of beige, strategically weaving softness into this dichotomy, ensuring our space never veers into the realms of rigidity or monotony.


The psychology behind these contrasting colors isn't lost on us. Architects and designers immersed in this space experience a cognitive tug-of-war—a balance between decisiveness and creativity. The interplay of black and white triggers a cognitive response, enhancing focus and encouraging innovative thinking. It's a place where creativity thrives within the defined parameters of precision.


Functionality reigns supreme within our studio. Nested seating areas serve as multifunctional spaces, transitioning effortlessly between a reading nook, a waiting area, or a pause point for contemplation. Lighting, warm and diffused, eschews harsh downlighting in favor of lamps, nurturing an ambiance that fosters focus and comfort. 

Dynamic flooring guides the circulation corridor, aligning with the natural flow of movement within the space. This flooring isn't just an aesthetic choice; it forms an invisible plane, a datum line connecting with the ceiling track, guiding and unifying the spatial experience.

Our commitment to functionality extends to the thoughtful orientation of work desks and the compartmentalization of space. The circulation corridor, flanked by functional zones, speaks to our dedication to optimizing every square inch without compromising on aesthetics or purpose.


We stand firm in our belief that design isn't just about beauty; it's about purpose, intentionality, and the pursuit of an equilibrium between form and function. Our studio, an embodiment of duality and precision, stands as a testament to this ethos.
