STUDIOIOIO is a collaborative platform for Architects and Designers. In order to start your own architecture practice, you need a first project, to get your first project, you need an established practice. So, how do we solve this chicken-and-egg problem? Design Competitions have, historically, been the way to break this cycle. With pressing issues in the built environment, it is essential that Architects be empowered to bring innovative solutions to realization. By lowering the barrier to entry into practice, we seek to support scalable positive change in our industry.
Every design project opens the possibility for new methods and approaches. As designers we are constantly learning new skills and exploring new informational territories. This is a space for us to share useful tools, databases, methods and collateral. This act of curation is an ongoing process of community building that we hope you will join us in.
