DESIGN–BUILD

From Site to Structure

An architectural practice for those who want to build

POETIC Design–Build offers courses for architecture students and emerging professionals. From site and concept to buildable structure—through real, hands-on practice.

Here, participants develop a buildable architectural structure through weekly studio critiques, precise deliverables, and close supervision—with the opportunity for full-scale, real-world construction.

A Curated Design–Build Studio

Design–Build is a studio- and apprenticeship-based format for architecture students and emerging professionals.

Participants work from site → idea → construction → buildable solution, with a strong focus on structure, materiality, and responsibility.

The process culminates in a collective evaluation of what will ultimately be built.
