FAQ

1. What do we do at OHLA STUDIO?

Operating in the space between architecture and conceptual design, OHLA STUDIO shapes formal aesthetics with a minimalist palette to design spaces that feel wholly contemporary. With training across architecture, ecology and visual art , we are able to channel a diverse range of influences into each project, from conception to completion. Whether in the context of a sweeping countryside estate, an oceanside villa or a pied à terre in the heart of the city, our goal is to create singular and timeless designs with an artist’s eye. OHLA STUDIO ha projects in the United States, Italy and Mexico.

2. How do we work?

Our Design Process is structured 4 phases:

Immersion – This is where we get to know our client, the team, and identify the project goals.

Vision – We believe that elegance and comfort should continue beyond the walls of architecture and extend into the garden. We design all of our projects with a detailed appreciation for a sense of place: scale, proportion, symmetry and balance. The result is that each project is in harmony with its environment and the architecture it supports.

Design Development – Once the concept is approved, we move forward with design development until even the smallest detail is defined; we find the resources, we gather the proposals, we review options until the final selection is made and a detailed budget is approved. We tumble a rock into a gem and put price on it during this phase.

Execution – We realize that in order for our designs to reach their true potential, a project vision must be led through each stage of the planning and construction process. Details are everything to us and our standards are exacting. By reducing the clutter and confusion that often accompany installation, we are able to execute the highest level of detail. Our project leadership in on hand to guarantee clarity and order at every stage, both with the visible and unseen levels of infrastructure.
