We connect the intelligence of place with the possibilities of technology.
X+1 is an architecture and computational design studio. We work across buildings, public space, urban research, and digital tools—treating each as part of one continuous design practice.
Our approach begins with context: culture, climate, memory, movement, and the everyday life of a place. Technology expands the questions we can ask and the futures we can test.
A small practice by design—every project is led directly, from first sketch to final system.
