Building Together, Innovating Always.
Creating spaces that inspire, function flawlessly, and stand as testaments to thoughtful design.
Our Story
Founded in 2015, Studio Archiform began with a simple vision: to create spaces that inspire, function flawlessly, and stand as testaments to thoughtful design. Principals Jane Smith and Michael Johnson met while working on the award-winning Crystal Tower project and discovered a shared philosophy—that architecture should honor both its inhabitants and its environment.
What started as a two-person practice in a converted warehouse has grown into a diverse team of 28 architects, designers, and planners, united by our commitment to creating architecture that matters. Today, our portfolio spans residential masterpieces, commercial innovations, and cultural landmarks across three continents.
Our Philosophy
We believe architecture exists at the intersection of art, science, and human experience. Every project begins with deep listening—understanding not just what our clients want to build, but why they want to build it. This human-centered approach drives us to design spaces that evolve from the specific needs, contexts, and dreams unique to each project.
Thoughtful Innovation
We embrace new technologies and methods while respecting architectural traditions, finding the perfect balance between bold ideas and proven solutions.
Environmental Responsibility
Sustainability isn't an add-on; it's fundamental to how we think and create. Our designs work with nature, not against it.
Lasting Impact
We design for today with tomorrow in mind, creating spaces that will remain relevant, functional, and beautiful for generations.
Our Team
Our strength lies in our diversity of thought, experience, and expertise. From LEED-certified sustainability specialists to heritage conservation experts, our team brings multidisciplinary thinking to every challenge.
Led by our principals, Jane Smith, Michael Johnson, and Sarah Chen, we operate as a collaborative studio rather than a hierarchical firm. This structure ensures that every voice contributes to the creative process, resulting in richer, more nuanced solutions.

Our Studio
Nestled in Seattle's Pioneer Square district, our studio reflects our design philosophy. Housed in a thoughtfully renovated brick warehouse originally built in 1911, our workspace balances historic character with contemporary functionality.
The studio features open collaborative spaces, a materials library, a fabrication workshop for model-making, and quiet zones for focused work. We've designed our environment to inspire creativity while demonstrating our commitment to sustainable practices through energy-efficient systems and biophilic elements.
