Consulting Services

 

The World would be a better place if buildings and their inhabitants could readily contribute to the health and viability of the surrounding Ecosystem.  That might be possible if everyone could afford to buy or build a home that could be appropriately sized and sited to provide comfort, safety, and an easily maintainable food source.  A Community of complimentary spaces such as these could be the basis for establishing that “better place.”

Our times are radically and rapidly changing, and we at Studio Protos see these moments of flux as an opportunity to help establish a new way of living for our clients. A way that is harmonious, beautiful, and practical. We believe that through better design we can enhance, enable, and encourage human and ecological health. We believe that by building in concert with our clients and their surroundings we can help them efficiently and sensitively evolve during a time of change. 

 Our designs are broadly inclusive of highly efficient building products, innovative development strategies and forward thinking financing models.  This amalgamation allows us to create a variety of custom buildings that are wed to the land in and around them with the capability of integral food production.

 Our team will walk you through each step of the building process. From design concept, financing, development, construction and business development, we provide turnkey and whole system designs that provide innovative building and living solutions.  

 If you are interested in learning more please contact us here. We are available for an initial free 30 min consultation call to define scope of work and to determine if we can support your project.

“The reality of the building is not in the roof or in the walls but the space within to be lived.”
