Universal Design Studio an architecture and design practice based in London and New York. We design from the inside out, for people first. We are driven by a deeply held belief in the transformative power of design, with a bespoke approach to each project, designing solutions that result in better spaces, experiences and cities.
Over the past two decades, Universal’s portfolio encompasses hotels and restaurants, retail environments, workspaces, residential, master planning and public realm design. Alongside this, the studio has executed culturally significant projects for galleries and cultural institutions across the globe.
Collaboration underpins everything we do. We believe the best, most inspired, results come from shared resources, ideas and perspectives. In 2021, we formed The New Standard, a collective with Map Project Office and Made Thought that seeks to redefine the contemporary design agency, uniting specialists from across disciplines to deliver simple solutions for a complex world.
