ABOUT_OPEN_WORKSHOP_FOR_ARCHITECTURE

At Open Workshop for Architecture [OWA], we are driven by a shared passion for crafting spaces that inspire and endure. Principals Fadi Garcia and Jessie Shell bring complementary expertise and a deep commitment to purposeful design. With their wide range of experience from high profile commercial to residential and historical renovation work, we focus on creating authentic environments that balance structure, function, and context.

Since founding the practice in 2015, we’ve worked on projects that range from adaptive reuse to new builds, always prioritizing thoughtful design solutions that reflect the unique goals of our clients. The duo and their team strive to shape environments that balance material honesty, spatial relationships, and aesthetic resonance, fostering meaningful connections between people and the spaces they inhabit.
