About

solidstates is Seoul-based architecture practice established in New York City. We have diverse interests related to space, architecture, place, urban, and humans to lead research & design. Our design targets a wide range of physical environments from small-scale objects, furniture, and installation to large-scale architecture, structure, and masterplan.
