GO’C studio

321 3rd Ave S #201, Seattle, WA 98104, Stati Uniti

Seattle based GO’C studio is an innovative and award-winning architecture + design studio founded in 2012 by Jon Gentry and Aimée O'Carroll. An internationally diverse background of experience of the founding partners brings a creative take to each project. The studio’s work is driven by the unique opportunities and constraints of site specific projects which evolve through close relationships with clients, artists, and craftsmen. These ties to their diverse design community foster an interdisciplinary and collaborative process. The architecture is strengthened through these relationships, grounded in a strong consideration of site, material, and craft resulting in authentic and tactile buildings. The resulting projects maintain their individuality while retaining a coherent design thread as a body of work. The completed works act as a partner to their community and site to create lasting human environments and experiences that enrich the cultural landscape
