About
The New York studio is led by Dror Benshetrit, a designer, thinker, dreamer, and futurist whose ingenuity informs a striking range of affecting, unconventional work. Together, our team of designers, artists, and architects tackles ambitious pursuits by considering the big picture.
Our intentionally cross-disciplinary work sharpens our larger understanding of the contemporary environment — built, aesthetic, or otherwise — fuelling our ability to devise unexpected yet valuable ideas that lay at the intersection of art, architecture, and design. Rooted in the notion of change, a process in which an object is curiously indeterminate, our work effectively blurs and pushes boundaries.
The studio is currently working internationally on a range of project types with focus on urban planning design. We’re focused on designing the future of cities, and incorporating nature into the built environment.
