Klopf Architecture invites members of BAYA and COTE to our office. Following a quick tour of our office we'll have an open discussion of our design philosophy, our processes, client advocacy efforts, and share some of our recent projects.
Klopf Architecture is a forward-thinking architectural design studio with a team of 17 recognized for our significant body of Mid-Century Modern (MCM) remodeling work and MCM-inspired new residences. We’ll delve into key design elements of our work, our unique perspectives, and our approach to minimizing the carbon footprint of our projects. For example:
Renewal, Reuse, and Resources: Prioritizing the application of embodied carbon versus operational carbon in our remodeling projects becomes a crucial aspect integrated into our design approach.
Borrowed Landscapes: Our architectural approach embraces the concept of borrowed landscapes, where the boundaries between indoor and outdoor spaces merge seamlessly.
Architecture as a Backdrop: Architecture should enhance and complement life rather than overpower it, serving as a backdrop, and supporting the experiences and interactions within spaces.
Balanced Light: Light plays a critical role in defining the atmosphere and mood of architectural spaces. A balanced interplay of natural and artificial light creates harmonious environments.
Simplicity and Clean Lines: Our design philosophy centers around simplicity, clean lines, and minimalism.
Timeless and Modern Aesthetics: We strive to create designs that transcend time and remain relevant for generations to come.
