The Studio

A New York studio forarchitecture, material,and craft.

We design homes and rooms that feel settled from the first day: built on careful plans, honest natural materials, and the work of the city's best craftspeople.

Every project is small enough for the founders to draw by hand and large enough to be done properly. We take on a handful each year.

About the Studio

Selected Work

2019 — 2025

We design spacesthat become morebeautiful with time.

Oak darkens, stone softens, plaster takes on the marks of a life. We choose materials that age well and treat light as part of the architecture, so a room keeps getting better long after we leave.
