• Led by Harvard architecture graduate Sidi Gomes—whose master’s thesis laid the foundation for our signature Social Space Design approach—our small boutique firm has designed over one million square feet across four continents. Our client portfolio includes world-class organizations such as MIT, EY, Boeing, PwC, Siemens Energy, HB Reavis, MORI, and the Cambridge Innovation Center. With extensive experience desining and overseeing construction of spaces across North America, East Asia, Europe, Africa, and the Middle East, we bring a deep understanding of varied cultural contexts, team dynamics, and regional project delivery.

  • ORIGINAL STUDIO is a design agency that does work in architecture, urban design, interior design, photography, furniture design, and in the Metaverse.

    We are passionate about our work, and feel comfortable across a range of scales: from massive masterplanning projects of entire districts, to the design of a unique furniture piece. If you are facing a challenging project and need support; or are the creative type (and are: uber talented, looking to help others build and realize their visions, and aren’t afraid of putting in the hard work) we want to work with you.

  • We pride ourselves in having our feet firmly planted on the ground while our minds are in the clouds. And while others will see weeds in a garden, we will have our hands in the dirt - turning them into nourishment for future flowers to grow.

    Acknowledging and embracing our past, we stand firm in our conviction that the world can and will improve.

    We are equipped with the know-how, experience, and drive to overcome what we believe to be the biggest challenge of today’s big urban environments - combating the feeling of lack of purpose and community one feels living in cities of millions of people where we are mostly strangers to one another. This despite living in today’s super globalized world of ours where it is easier than it has ever been to connect to any and everyone.

    Our most important work will be in finding like minded people and organizations on this same quest - providing them with help & support, or with a fraternity to show them that they are not alone. And, ideally, to also serve as inspiration to get others started in this journey as well.

    For one candle to light another, until we turn night into day.

Can’t wait to hear about you and your project,

Sidi Gomes

Principal, Founder
