SHED Architecture and Design

SHED began as a design-build firm, a background that continues to shape its work. The Seattle studio takes on projects large and small, including houses, commercial spaces, adaptive reuse, workspace, food and drink, landscape, and remodels. For older buildings, it works on remodeling and rehabilitation across different structures, sizes, and vintages. Its approach to high-performance building considers natural qualities and environmental impact throughout the design process. Remodel work starts with understanding the value of existing land, history, or structures. The studio also pursues special projects through community collaboration and artistic exploration, and creates objects and furniture for clients and partners. SHED offers plans for its pizza oven in exchange for donations to organizations advocating for change.
