We design modern, crafted spaces inspired by lifestyle and connected to nature. Architecture specific to place and in harmony with people, place and planet.

OUTSIDE Architecture was built upon a multidisciplinary foundation in design, construction, real-estate development and outdoor adventure. With this background, OUTSIDE projects are artistically composed with rational constructability, economic responsibility and in partnership with the environment. We strive for clean and elegant detailing that promotes craft, celebrates materiality and honors the talented people who build our projects. Experienced in both client-commissioned and self-directed development projects, we understand that great work can be done economically and that design is a currency that adds value.

DESIGN PHILOSOPHY

MODERN.

Modern means something different to everyone. For us, it is more of an approach to building than an aesthetic ideal. Our work prioritizes the essential elements of a project and is void of superficial ornamentation. Each project is a balanced composition of clean, consistent details. The result is a minimalist, humble architecture which is both cost effective and straightforward to build.

Less is more

SPECIFIC.

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. Another line goes here to make things a bit more equally spaced in this section.

SUSTAINABLE.

We approach building as a partnership with the land and seek solutions specific to their place. Our work employs energy efficient systems, passive solar design and utilizes natural materials. By blurring the distinction between inside and OUTSIDE, we encourage people’s inherent desire to connect with nature. Another line goes here to make things a bit more equally spaced in this section.

Building for the future

CRAFT.

The digital age has seen a disappearance of craft. There’s less people making things and seemingly less demand for custom solutions. Our work celebrates the dying art of making with custom solutions specific to individual project needs. Our process promotes early and consistent design collaborations with the builders, fabricators and supplies who bring our work to life.

Keep craft alive
