About akin studio

We are an award winning architecture and design studio with a wide range of experience in designing buildings and spaces for living, the arts, public realm and commercial uses, as well as bespoke furniture design and installations. We are committed to design which is specific to place by exploring the found conditions of an existing interior, building and site. We make connections by looking at the history, local construction language, landscape, as well as the social and cultural setting. This process allows us to make characterful, timeless yet contemporary projects which complement and reinforce the qualities of a place. The studio approaches sustainability from both a technical and pragmatic position. We specialise in ultra-low energy design, with a certified Passivhaus designer in the team and a breadth of knowledge in deep retrofit, re-use and low embodied energy materials. We have studios in East London and Frome Somerset, but are able to work across the UK - We're excited to meet potential clients and collaborators to discuss projects of any scale.
