STUDIO CLOUD

STUDIO CLOUD is a Sheffield-based collaborative practice for architectural design and research established in 2016, working across disciplinary boundaries, engaging a wide range of scales and modes of practice, navigating research-based design and practice-based research.

The studio pursues architecture as both an intellectual and a responsive practice, as well as theoretical construct. Each design is a subtle reinvention of architecture from within its own traditions and a unique response to a specific context.

STUDIO CLOUD is a RIBA Chartered Practice.

We are delighted to share that we are now providing Passive House design services!

Passive House is an energy performance standard that provides a high level of comfort and indoor air quality and a significant reduction in space heating requirements compared to the standard practice for UK new builds.

Its focus is on building envelope, and can be applied to any building type.

Passive House applies to new-build as well as retrofit.

Get in touch if you are interested in Passive House design for your project!
