ABOUT
Based in the East Hampton, New York, STUDIO XIAO’s portfolio of built work includes residential and commercial projects that span across the US and around the world. A compelling composition of mood, texture, sound and light are harnessed to satiate the senses in our approach to building contemporary spaces.
Our work drives unity between function and visual appeal, borrowing from a reductionist design vocabulary that expresses purity in form. We build architecture that is responsive to its surroundings, harmonizing with nature’s rhythm and flow. Our intention is to inspire productivity as well as rest; and therefore, spaces must be flexible to host a range of activities for dynamic, yet balanced lifestyles.
We build with longevity in mind. New buildings adopt forms and materials designed to transcend the ages while architectural relics are appreciated as capsules of time. As obsolete and old buildings are imprinted with the history of its users, we’re emboldened to borrow from the past while imagining new possibilities for the future.
