About Our Studio

An architecture and interior studio creating calm, enduring places for living, working and gathering.

Our story

Designing a Better Built Environment

Arshan began as a two-person studio sketching homes on a kitchen table. Today we are a team of architects, interior designers and project managers working across homes, workplaces, hospitality and cultural buildings.

Our approach has stayed the same: listen carefully, design with restraint and stay involved until the last detail is right. We believe good design should feel effortless to live with — and should last.
