Frame is a multidisciplinary studio; a team with varying perspectives and skillsets crafting unique spaces to live, work, and relax in. Formerly Hwang DeWitt Architecture, the studio has developed a diverse body of work including residential, retail, office and medical interiors. The firm’s small size, by design, centers on the belief that each project deserves attention from all levels of the pra
ctice. We begin by absorbing as much about a project’s location and it’s practical requirements, including lifestyle, emotion, and passions of the client. We implore our clients to look beyond the specifics of the program, finding a description of how they want to feel being far more informative than the amount of square footage. We then layer our knowledge of the global design community and technical expertise, where through our frequent travels, we’ve gathered new ideas, emerging technologies, and common sense solutions that can be centuries old. We are driven by concept as much as by passion for the act of building. We believe in cutting away excess, ensuring elements come together in a thoughtful, clear and economical manner. Due to our hands on approach, Frame excels at small to medium sized commissions, with a greater than average amount of time spent on collaborating with the craftsmen, making certain that details are correct. We work with a select group of craftspeople, artisans and manufacturers, each selected for their high quality and outstanding workmanship, but most importantly, a shared vision.
