studioDSK

Based in Massachusetts, studioDSK crafts rural residential estates and living pavilions defined by continuous indoor-outdoor floor transitions, sweeping pergola canopies, and expressive glazed bays that expose structural bracing. This work serves as a precise reference when detailing flush deck thresholds across sheltered living zones, specifying integrated green-roof pergolas, or aligning concealed cove lighting along geometric floor openings.
