STUDIO KALAMAR
 

While the majority of our work focuses on residential, office and public buildings, the practice's projects range from urban master plans to interior and furniture design. To us, projects have no scale: the same attention is devoted to design of a pencil as to a master plan of a city.

The principal goal of the practice has always been to create built environment, to build. One of the basic decisions we made is never to specialise, we seek assignments in as broad a field as possible. Each new project is a new challenge, an opportunity to further develop and grow. Quality design always comes in conjunction with functionality and technical innovation, so the practice closely collaborates with clients and consultants from different fields. Each project is designed for its particular space with understanding that it is a part of a bigger picture, so as to seem that it had always belonged there.

Environmental awareness plays an integral role in our work, as we believe that more and more of our creative energy within the design process will soon be directed into limiting the consumption of natural resources and general environmental responsibility.

From 1996 to 2023, our completed projects have totalled over 400.000 m2, all built on schedule and within their respective budgets.
