How We Work
At Studio Lobato, every project begins with understanding people before designing spaces.
We believe architecture is not only about how something looks, but how it feels to live inside it over time. Our process is designed to create clarity, collaboration, and a calm experience from the first conversation to the final details.
Each project is approached holistically, balancing architecture, interiors, landscape, functionality, climate, and emotional atmosphere as one cohesive vision.
01 — Discovery
Every project starts with a conversation.
We discuss the site, lifestyle, vision, timeline, budget, and the feeling the project should hold. We want to understand not only what the project needs, but how you want to live, move, host, rest, and experience the space.
This stage often includes:
-
Initial consultations
-
Site analysis
-
Lifestyle questionnaires
-
Project goals and priorities
-
Inspiration and reference discussions
02 — Concept Design
The concept phase establishes the architectural direction of the project.
We explore spatial planning, circulation, relationship to landscape, natural light, ventilation, massing, material atmosphere, and the overall emotional tone of the architecture.
This phase typically includes:
-
Concept plans
-
Spatial layouts
-
Mood and material direction
-
Architectural language
-
Preliminary visualizations
The goal is to create a strong and coherent idea before moving into technical development.
03 — Design Development
Once the concept is approved, the project is refined in greater detail.
Architecture and interiors are developed together through plans, sections, elevations, materials, custom details, and technical coordination.
This phase may include:
-
Detailed floor plans
-
Interior layouts
-
Material palettes
-
Joinery concepts
-
Bathroom and kitchen design
-
Lighting direction
-
Consultant coordination
At this stage, the project begins to fully take shape.
04 — Documentation
We prepare the architectural drawing package required for construction and coordination with consultants and contractors.
Depending on the project scope, documentation may include:
-
Construction drawings
-
Elevations and sections
-
Door and window schedules
-
Material specifications
-
Interior detailing
-
Reflected ceiling plans
-
Coordination drawings
The objective is to create clarity and precision before construction begins.
05 — Construction Support
During construction, we remain involved to help protect the integrity of the design.
This may include:
-
Site visits
-
Coordination with contractors
-
Material reviews
-
Clarifications and revisions
-
Furniture and styling support
-
Final detailing and finishing guidance
We believe the final atmosphere of a project is shaped through careful execution and attention to detail.
Our Approach
We prefer to work closely and collaboratively with clients, builders, consultants, and artisans throughout the process.
Our projects are guided by:
-
Simplicity and restraint
-
Strong spatial concepts
-
Natural materials
-
Climate-responsive design
-
Indoor-outdoor living
-
Emotional atmosphere
-
Long-term functionality
Rather than following trends, we focus on creating architecture that feels timeless, grounded, and deeply connected to place.
The Experience
Luxury is often the reduction of uncertainty.
Clear communication, thoughtful organization, and a calm process are an important part of how we work. We want clients to feel informed, supported, and confident throughout every stage of the project.
Every project is unique, but the intention remains the same:
To create spaces that feel meaningful, lasting, and deeply lived in.
