When defining a new home's direction from the beginning
We consider the site, surroundings and family life together to plan the structure of the house and relationships between spaces.

Residential Architecture & Renovation
Rather than covering everything with the new, we read both the possibilities of the place and the life that will continue within it.

OUR APPROACH
Rather than covering everything with the new, we read both the possibilities of the place and the life that will continue within it.
A home is where daily habits accumulate over the longest time. We study the times a family spends together and apart, daylight and views, storage and movement, so architecture and interiors support the whole of daily life rather than a single scene. In an existing building, we first distinguish the value to retain from the conditions that need to change.
WHEN WE CAN HELP
We can join your project
at any of these stages.
When reconfiguring an apartment or existing home
We review the current structure and everyday difficulties, then set priorities for circulation, storage, materials and light.
When giving an old building a new use
We read the traces and structural potential of the existing building, using one clear standard to decide what to retain and what to change.
SCOPE
We connect the required work
into one continuous process.
Understanding Life & Place
We consider the family's daily routine, spatial and storage needs, and the conditions of the site or existing building.
Architecture & Planning
We define the scope of new construction or renovation and plan the structure of space, daylight and movement.
Interiors & Furniture
Materials, lighting and domestic furniture are connected as a single backdrop rather than separate elements.
Construction Delivery
Within the agreed project scope, Atelier SOW plans construction, integrates specialist trades and directly manages site schedule and quality.

PROCESS
From the first question
to decisions on site
Listen to Daily Life
We listen to current difficulties, future ways of living and the changes expected from the place.
Review the Conditions
We organise the site and existing structure, required reviews and project scope.
Design the Whole
We develop architecture, interiors, furniture and light around the flow of daily life.
Deliver on Site
We manage fabrication, construction, schedule and quality so that design decisions remain consistent through completion.
BEFORE YOU ASK
Questions often asked
at the first inquiry
01Can we consult you before choosing a site or home?
If you have basic information about a site or property under consideration, we can discuss what should be reviewed at the current stage and what work may be required next.
02Do architecture and interior design need to be commissioned together?
The scope can be combined or separated according to the project's needs. Where the two areas meet, reviewing them from the outset under the same design principles helps preserve the overall continuity.
03When will the schedule and cost be known?
After reviewing the scale, location, existing conditions and required scope, we outline the expected process and proposal. Details that have not yet been decided can be clarified together during the initial consultation.
