Office - on hiatus
TALLER was founded in opposition to complacent design. We worked in pursuit of a deliberate architecture. An architecture of intervention; an active architecture to advance the quality our collective built environment. Given the ubiquity of our built surroundings, this required working at all scales with equal fervor: from interior remodels to large-scale developments. In an increasingly commoditized and segmented sector, this also required expanding the traditional role of the Architect. As such, we brought together expertise in various areas of the building process, exploring alternative methods of practice to increase our impact across the entire value chain of project delivery.
TALLER is on indefinite hiatus as an architecture studio as we explore work in other facets of the built environment.
