Estudiooca

estudioOCA is an international studio founded in 2007, formed from its origin to focus on urbanism and landscape issues on a global scale. The studio’s primary offices are located in Bangkok, New York and Barcelona. estudioOCA takes a rational, pragmatic approach to urbanization and the landscape, responding to ecological, social, and political forces, and developing frameworks for transformation to meet current and future demands. The studio provides a conceptual rethinking of the public domain, revealing new opportunities for cities and open space. We work in parallel with, and in response to, infrastructure deployment, adapting mobility networks to greater bicycle and pedestrian uses, creating vital interconnections throughout urban environments. We work with cities to extract public space from outmoded uses. We work with architects, engineers, developers and other professionals to build socially interactive places. Our team’s multidisciplinary background, composed of landscape architects, architects, urbanists, landscape ecologists, social scientists, water resource engineers, and geoscientists, allows for a greater understanding of the interface between building, infrastructure, and landscape. Landscape serves as common ground where designed natural systems, urbanised space, and structures intersect. The use of nature based solutions such as green infrastructure to help mitigate climate change, is one of the primary focus of estudioOCA work internationally.
