Settle is an architecture studio dedicated to reimagining the design of the most essential space of all: our habitats.
Our vision
We believe that everyone deserves access to quality space.​
​
​Architecture and design are far too often inaccessible to people from mid and lower socio-economic backgrounds. We can provide high-quality design by making it more affordable through social initiatives, adopting novel technologies, and designing architecture at scale.
We design a range of spaces — from micro cabins to homes and hotels that fit within our vision.
​
Whatever the project program or scale is, we approach each design as an opportunity to better the lives of its inhabitants and the planet.Â
