About the Company

A culturally driven design studio that believes in the gravitas of a context and the power of the locus to inform it's design process and product.

The LOCI team takes advantage of their global experience and architectural knowledge to promote regional design that relates to a project's place and immediate local context; hence, the slogan "Think Global". This design philosophy reinforces LOCI's perspective that architecture and design is not an imparted technology but one that grows from the site's culture, tradition, history as well as it's climatic and geographic context.
