ISO Ideas is an architectural research and design agency based in San Francisco, USA. The founding members graduated from MIT, UPenn and Princeton University and have been managing major architectural projects in internationally acknowledged firms, including SOM, HOK, Ateliers Jean Nouvel, Kengo Kuma and Associates. 

We believe that architecture should radiate the warmth of tactility and spatial quality. While buildings nowadays are no longer crafted but assembled, we are devoted to bringing back humanistic care and natural tectonics to all of our projects, ranging from residential, commercial,  cultural, institutional, as well as interior design. 

In parallel with architectural practices, ISO endeavors to explore interdisciplinary research and introspective critique. We hope to facilitate theoretical discourse as the vehicle for designing more innovative and kind-hearted works that better serve the communities.
