The widely sought-after work-life balance seamlessly evolves into work-life integration.

The outcome is a dwelling that seamlessly combines office necessities with residential functionality well suited to the post-pandemic era.

Bio

In 2022, these visionaries seamlessly combined their collective experiences and expertise to co-found the Santó Studio. The term "San" (弎) pays homage to the historical tradition of thrice-daily site inspections, while "To" (島) signifies each member as an autonomous entity. Together, they form " Santó," a collaborative venture poised to navigate and bring to life a myriad of possibilities within the spatial domain, grounded in the pragmatic realization of their distinct backgrounds and perspectives.
