From architectural design and space planning to construction and permitting, Studio Four manages your project under one roof.
Construction carried out by our own team, working from our own designs, with no separate general contractor required. Because the same firm designs and builds, design decisions get made with construction realities in mind from the start, and problems get caught and resolved by the people who actually understand both sides of the project.
Renovations, additions, and custom home design for homeowners throughout Houston’s inner-loop neighborhoods. Whether it’s a kitchen expansion, a second-story addition, or a full custom home, residential design starts with understanding how a household actually lives, not just what looks good on paper.
Retail, mixed-use, and ground-up commercial design for businesses and developers. Commercial projects come with their own layer of considerations, accessibility compliance, code requirements specific to occupancy type, and designing for how customers or employees will actually move through the space.
Workplace design and tenant build-outs, planned around how a business actually operates day to day. A good office design accounts for team size, collaboration needs, and growth, not just square footage.
Layout and space planning for both residential and commercial projects, including for businesses evaluating a space before committing to a lease. Space planning up front can reveal whether a space actually fits your needs before you’re locked into a lease or a purchase.
Permitting support and coordination through the City of Houston and relevant historic district or floodplain review processes, handled as part of the design and construction process rather than an afterthought. This includes preparing the documentation permitting review actually requires, not just the drawings needed to build.
