Full-scope architecture, from feasibility to occupancy.
The studio delivers the complete range of architectural, planning, and interior services. Its depth — and its current workload — sits with three building types where operational performance drives the architecture.
Where the studio goes deepest
Buildings that exist to move goods, make product, or process data. Get the operational model wrong and the owner pays for it daily for twenty years.
Logistics & Distribution Centers
Regional distribution hubs, cross-dock facilities, and fulfillment centers. Dock and yard layout, racking-driven clear-height planning, and structural grids sized for real racking and MHE systems — not generic warehouse assumptions.
Industrial & Manufacturing Facilities
High-complexity production plants where process flow, utilities, structural systems, and life-safety requirements are resolved together from concept — including heavy-industrial bays, crane systems, and long-span structures.
Data Centers & Mission-Critical
Facilities where power density, cooling strategy, redundancy, and physical security drive the architecture. Planned around the white-space/grey-space relationship, plant footprint, and phased capacity growth.
Getting the most out of the asset
For an entrepreneur or developer, the architecture is an investment decision. Four decades of practice go into making the plot work harder — legally, and on the first submission.
Maximizing buildable area
Reading a plot against the required program and the applicable planning scheme to establish what can genuinely be built — buildable area, coverage, height, setbacks, parking — and then designing to the top of that envelope rather than safely inside it.
Permits without the false starts
Long-standing working relationships with planning committees and municipal engineering departments across the country, and deep familiarity with how each authority actually reviews a file. That means submissions that anticipate the objections, fewer rounds of revision, and a shorter path to a permit.
Regulatory fit as a design input
Code, zoning, fire, and accessibility requirements resolved into the scheme from the first concept — so approvals don't force a redesign late, when changes are most expensive.
One senior architect, start to finish
Giorah Levy is personally involved in every project from first site visit through construction oversight. No handover to a junior team once the contract is signed.
Everything else the studio delivers
A complete architectural practice sits behind the specialisms — planning, permitting, delivery, technical coordination, and interiors.
Buildings & Building Types
Cold-Chain & Temperature-Controlled
Thermally segmented facilities with cold-chain handling, dock scheduling, and envelope performance designed together.
Commercial & Office Buildings
Office, business-park, and mixed commercial buildings — from single headquarters to multi-tenant developments.
Public & Institutional Buildings
Municipal and government buildings, delivered for ministries, municipalities, and local councils.
Educational & Community Facilities
Schools, community buildings, and civic facilities within the studio's public-sector practice.
Residential & Large-Scale Housing
Multi-unit and large-scale residential schemes — performed in the studio's earlier years and available on request.
Agricultural & Food Production
Food processing, packing, and agricultural production facilities, including work for major food-industry clients.
Utility & Support Structures
Workshops, plant buildings, gatehouses, and the support structures that keep an industrial site working.
Planning & Strategy
Master Planning
Site-wide and campus-level planning for industrial parks and multi-building sites, with phased build-out sequencing.
Urban & Town Planning
City and district-level planning work, including statutory planning schemes.
Feasibility & Programming
Early studies that pressure-test a site and program before real money moves — buildable area, code constraints, operational fit.
Site Selection & Due Diligence
Comparative assessment of candidate sites against an operational program and regulatory picture.
Zoning & Land-Use Advisory
Advice on land-use designation, permitted use, and what a given site will actually support.
Capacity & Expansion Studies
Studies establishing how much more a built site can take, and how to phase it.
Permitting & Regulatory
Permitting & Building Approvals
Navigating planning authorities and code approval for industrial and commercial use — run repeatedly, not occasionally.
Regulatory & Code Compliance
Life-safety, accessibility, and code compliance strategy resolved into the design rather than bolted on.
Authority Liaison & Hearings
Representing the project with planning committees and regulatory bodies through to approval.
Fire & Life-Safety Coordination
Egress, compartmentation, and suppression strategy coordinated with specialist consultants.
Design Delivery
Concept & Schematic Design
The first architectural concept resolving massing, structural grid, and site logistics against the operational program.
Design Development
Concept matured into a coordinated design, with structure, MEP, and life-safety resolved alongside the architecture.
Construction Documentation
Full construction document sets detailed enough that what gets built matches what was designed.
Tender & Procurement Support
Tender documentation and technical evaluation support during contractor selection.
Construction Administration & Oversight
On-site oversight through to occupancy, keeping design intent intact as the building goes up.
As-Built Documentation
Record documentation reflecting what was actually constructed, for operations and future works.
Technical & Consulting
Structural Coordination
Working the structural grid and system into the architecture from the first sketch, with the project engineers.
MEP & Utilities Coordination
Mechanical, electrical, and utility routing coordinated against process and architectural requirements.
Building Envelope & Cladding
Facade systems, panel and cladding design, thermal performance, and detailing.
Sustainability & Energy Performance
Envelope performance, solar readiness, and energy strategy shaped into the building rather than added to it.
Value Engineering & Cost Optimization
Reworking design decisions to protect budget without giving up operational performance.
Building Surveys & Condition Assessment
Assessment of existing buildings ahead of purchase, retrofit, or expansion.
Retrofit, Renovation & Change of Use
Adapting existing buildings to new operational requirements or a new permitted use.
Interiors & Visualization
Interior Design
Interior design delivered alongside architecture — offices, front-of-house, and staff areas within industrial buildings.
Space Planning & Fit-Out
Workplace and operational space planning, and fit-out documentation.
3D Visualization & Massing Studies
Renderings, massing studies, and visual material for approvals, marketing, and stakeholder buy-in.
Landscape & Site Design
Yard, circulation, parking, and landscape design as part of the site's working design.
