local solutions for a sustainable world
At studio OMT architects we aim to contribute through our projects and visions to a sustainable future. We value local traditions and support the empowerment of existing communities. Through connecting with these communities and in combination with our research into local construction methods and resources we develop innovative design solutions. The implementation of sustainable materials, such as timber, is combined with flexible spatial layouts to support long living and adaptable buildings.
