LOT-EK is a full-scope architecture studio that focuses on designing buildings and environments by upcycling industrial objects/systems including - though not limited to - the shipping container. As a full-scope architecture design studio, LOT-EK develops custom-designed projects from Concept Design, to Construction Drawings/Specifications (including coordination of engineering, permitting and bidding), and Fabrication/Construction Supervision.
LOT-EK is an international architecture design studio. We design and oversee the fabrication/construction of buildings and environments all over the world. Our buildings are designed to respond
LOT-EK is not a fabrication/construction company. We do not fabricate or sell any of our projects directly. We have developed and keep developing relationships with fabricators and contractors in many parts of the world as we believe that projects should be fabricated/built locally.
We bring the design and technical know-how and we look for fabrication/construction capabilities wherever our project are.
DeMaria Design Assoc. is a creative and innovative design firm offering architecture, planning, branding and interior design services.
Our clients are bold, diverse and innovative - each seeking to define, explore, identify and/or present their own creative business culture or personal lifestyles through art and architecture.
In our quest to unlock the widest array of design possibilities, we explore disciplines and successful models/case studies beyond the boundaries of architecture. We team with experts, public and private entities and educational institutions from various fields in an unrelenting design process. Through collaboration, exploration, experimentation, re-adaptation and fabrication, powerful hybrid design solutions surface from a combination of non-traditional models.
Our creative work focuses on heterogeneous relationships – hybridism among culture, craft, material, form, function, technology and most importantly, people. Each of these elements serves in some capacity as a catalyst for positive change in our physical environment. Our studio is in a perpetual evolutionary state, unencumbered by historical prejudice/ mimicry.
