The level of excellence of the studio’s work has been recognised by various awards and publication. True to its core vision as a space of creative collaboration, the studio’s team consists of people with a shared interest in design, culture, material research and construction traditions and methodologies.

lowfat’s work spans across various scales and is the product of a well crafted collaboration between design research professionals and construction coordination specialists. The design team is keenly updated on the latest status of construction standards, and incorporates technology and building materials in innovative and unexpected ways.

Project analysis and consultation in close cooperation with the clients, has proven key component to the consistency of the studio’s realised work in terms of aesthetics, function, time planning, technical and financial approach.

We have been designing for 20 years!
