SITU is an unconventional architecture practice that uses design, research, and fabrication for creative and social impact. Our company was founded in 2005, in Brooklyn, New York, by four friends studying architecture at the Cooper Union. We’ve shaped our practice out of the multi-disciplinary style of our education, and have grown through working with clients who value a progressive approach to problem-solving. We now employ a staff of 40+ people.
Our process is client-specific, adaptive and driven by a diversity of deep knowledge, untethered from any stylistic or formal agenda. This allows us to work out-of-bounds, using new tools of architecture to generate unique outcomes.
Our practice combines spatial research and programmatic creativity with a strong foundation in materials and craft. We take a highly flexible approach to our work, shaped by the unique constraints and opportunities of each project, to create meaningful contributions to the built environment.
