Work

S+ ARCHITECTURE[5] is an award-winning architecture and urban design firm. S+ provides a platform for design research for wide array of projects ranging from urban to object scale and spanning a great geographic reach. S+ ARCHITECTURE follows a design process dedicated to integration of building and urban context, and finding innovative solutions for specific problems. The firm explores new ways to respond to the specific programmatic requirements of each unique project. At early stages of design, the focus is on site, program, context and green innovation which leads to creation of place-sensitive and concept-driven design with sustainable buildings and environments that are innovative and imaginative.

S+ completed projects at multiple scales, from storage units, to minimal dwellings, large palaces, university buildings and production plants. Some of the projects involve new buildings and renovation of historically important structures as well. S+ ARCHITECTURE’s portfolio of projects were developed with the innovative and technical expertise of the firm and by collaborating with teams of creative architects, engineers and designers.

S+ projects were widely published and exhibited, and received architectural design awards. The projects were exhibited at AIA Baltimore, University at Buffalo, Milan Fair, Polytechnic University of Turin, The Union of Architects of Russia in Moscow and many cities in various countries. The firm is affiliated with Chamber of Architects (UIA), American Institute of Architects College of Fellows (FAIA) and Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA).
