Studio

NAME architecture is an international architectural practice founded by award-winning architect Nathalie Rozencwajg. 

 

About NAME

Working across cultural, residential, retail and hospitality sectors, NAME creates highly contextual projects which maximise the design potential of both buildings and interiors.

Best known for its award-winning Grade II listed Town Hall Hotel in East London, NAME has significant expertise working in conservation areas and with existing and listed buildings.

The practice’s approach combines a respect for the value of built heritage with an understanding of its clients’ long-term business objectives resulting in schemes which are viable, sustainable and beautiful.

A global practice with strong local connections, NAME has designed projects as diverse as an Arctic resort in Lapland, a shopping mall in Bangkok, and a new hotel for a desert climate. Each and every project is considered as a building in its own right, and as an opportunity to contribute to and enhance its surroundings.

Skilled at addressing the constraints of complex projects, NAME’s approach is rooted in ongoing research into new materials and advanced methods of design and construction, building trusted networks of partners and experts to help leverage the potential for innovation.

The value of NAME’s international experience and multicultural approach is demonstrated by a portfolio of original, striking and meticulously conceptualised projects. NAME brings expertise, vision and creativity to every project, working collaboratively to help clients shape their ideas into reality.

NAME is based in London and Paris.
