Studio JCI

The studio is founded on the desire to produce good work, test creative ideas and build buildings they are proud of. They believe that they can instigate positive change and transformation by bringing design to areas where it is often ignored, and they look for opportunities in every project to re-examine conventional solutions. Each project, regardless of programme, budget, or scope, is approached as an opportunity to achieve these goals while delivering outstanding results to their clients. The work is a culmination of intensive study, from concept and aesthetics through to functionality and building performance. They use location as a catalyst to explore regional identity and vernacular technique to create projects that embrace their context. Within their collaborative and open studio, they strive to rigorously examine the physical, urban and sociocultural context of every project. The culture and relationships they cultivate within the studio, with their consultants, and with clients, are as critical to the success of our projects as the strategies they use to design and execute them
