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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
A complete architectural practice sits behind the specialisms — planning, permitting, delivery, technical coordination, and interiors.
Thermally segmented facilities with cold-chain handling, dock scheduling, and envelope performance designed together.
Office, business-park, and mixed commercial buildings — from single headquarters to multi-tenant developments.
Municipal and government buildings, delivered for ministries, municipalities, and local councils.
Schools, community buildings, and civic facilities within the studio's public-sector practice.
Multi-unit and large-scale residential schemes — performed in the studio's earlier years and available on request.
Food processing, packing, and agricultural production facilities, including work for major food-industry clients.
Workshops, plant buildings, gatehouses, and the support structures that keep an industrial site working.
Site-wide and campus-level planning for industrial parks and multi-building sites, with phased build-out sequencing.
City and district-level planning work, including statutory planning schemes.
Early studies that pressure-test a site and program before real money moves — buildable area, code constraints, operational fit.
Comparative assessment of candidate sites against an operational program and regulatory picture.
Advice on land-use designation, permitted use, and what a given site will actually support.
Studies establishing how much more a built site can take, and how to phase it.
Navigating planning authorities and code approval for industrial and commercial use — run repeatedly, not occasionally.
Life-safety, accessibility, and code compliance strategy resolved into the design rather than bolted on.
Representing the project with planning committees and regulatory bodies through to approval.
Egress, compartmentation, and suppression strategy coordinated with specialist consultants.
The first architectural concept resolving massing, structural grid, and site logistics against the operational program.
Concept matured into a coordinated design, with structure, MEP, and life-safety resolved alongside the architecture.
Full construction document sets detailed enough that what gets built matches what was designed.
Tender documentation and technical evaluation support during contractor selection.
On-site oversight through to occupancy, keeping design intent intact as the building goes up.
Record documentation reflecting what was actually constructed, for operations and future works.
Working the structural grid and system into the architecture from the first sketch, with the project engineers.
Mechanical, electrical, and utility routing coordinated against process and architectural requirements.
Facade systems, panel and cladding design, thermal performance, and detailing.
Envelope performance, solar readiness, and energy strategy shaped into the building rather than added to it.
Reworking design decisions to protect budget without giving up operational performance.
Assessment of existing buildings ahead of purchase, retrofit, or expansion.
Adapting existing buildings to new operational requirements or a new permitted use.
Interior design delivered alongside architecture — offices, front-of-house, and staff areas within industrial buildings.
Workplace and operational space planning, and fit-out documentation.
Renderings, massing studies, and visual material for approvals, marketing, and stakeholder buy-in.
Yard, circulation, parking, and landscape design as part of the site's working design.
