Fivedot

Fivedot Architecture + Consulting + Public Interest Design We believe that good design is at the root of solving problems and creating happiness.

Whether it is the design of a home, a village, a library or simply a conversation, thoughtful design can set the stage for great things. Fivedot design build and The Global Studio have come together as Fivedot to provide design services to private clients as well as nonprofit organizations.

Framing is moving fast on our latest Residential Small Lot (RSL) project taking shape in the Hillman City neighborhood. A simple metal clad gable form intersects with a green roofed box to form an internal courtyard. The siting of the house in the rear of the lot allows for privacy while adding density to the urban fabric. Stay tuned for project updates.
