Studio Completiva Inc. is a twelve-person firm, founded in 1995, on the belief that architecture is the fulfillment of human vision. The firm’s Latin name translates as studio, “a study in zealous fashion; to learn,” and completiva, “to fill, to complete, to make whole.” We believe the role of an architectural firm is to translate human aspirations into built realities. Architecture celebrates the marriage of human need and desire.
Studio Completiva specializes in challenging commissions undertaken by committed clients. We actively seek out complex projects requiring an innovative solution and approach. The firm focuses on unique projects of various scales. By combining thoroughness with insight, judgment and skill, we produce superior creative work, informed by the complexities of each project. Through exhaustive investigations and collaborations, we synthesize a single-most appropriate design solution.
As a small firm, Studio Completiva’s unique strengths lie in flexibility, innovation, and dedication to its practice. These strengths are not only clearly exemplified in the firm’s work but also in its relationships with clients and consultants. The hallmark of the firm is personalized service.
The firm’s success results directly from the high quality and unsurpassed commitment of the staff. The firm is committed to environmentally and ecologically sensitive designs and offers a full range of architectural services, including, feasibility studies, findings and recommendation reports, visual analysis, master planning, architectural/interior design, cost estimation and research/writing and education.
