Studio INTEGRATE

studio INTEGRATE is an architectural studio, located in London. It was founded by Mehran Gharleghi and Amin Sadeghy in 2009. Integrate is interested in designing new spaces through a new methodology that integrates aesthetics and performance. We consider the human sense of beauty and comfort as the most imperative element that forms space. We strive to achieve new qualitative and performative spaces via a careful examination of exterior and interior forces that effect the built environment. These forces include site characteristics, micro- and macro climatic situations, spatial criteria, material capacity and local techniques and resources. Employing new sophisticated design and analysis tools along with rigorous physical material studies allow us to synthesize design and performance, establishing new relationships with the built environment and ultimately leading to novel spatial experiences.
