Who We Are
Fork Design is an integrated architecture and fabrication studio. We frame the process of design as a storytelling venture, and as an adventure. As a multidisciplinary firm, we develop solutions for the near future and the next now.
By partnering with like minded individuals, small businesses, and organizations, we design and implement human-centered solutions. We intentionally view the world through a multi-varied lens to find unique opportunities for design, as well as an adaptive approach to the world around us.
Fork Design is about constantly making decisions wherever there is a split in a path, as well as when there is no path. The lodestar for the endeavor is to make it beautiful.
