The greatest potential architecture can provide is a stimulating interaction between people and their environment. It’s more than the buildings, more than the clients: It comes alive with use. Architecture is born out of collaboration, it has attitude, it’s fun. We create environments that allow for freedom - of use, of expression, of experimentation.

We aim to inspire across disciplinary lines and engage the habitable world through our appropriations and innovations. We value the poignant & the ridiculous. We reveal the oddities, the quirks & imperfections that break the monotony of daily life. The future is not narrowly defined, but open-ended. Architecture should be able to be assembled by the user at times- be inspired by high technology but accomplished by low-tech craft. It should be affordable, and remain crafty utilizing a range of skilled and unskilled labor. Design, Bitches accept responsibility for our environment and our relationship to society, we strive for the biodegradable.
