Steven Holl Architects

Steven Holl Architects is a renowned architecture firm established in 1976 by Steven Holl, celebrated for its innovative designs that seamlessly integrate spatial experimentation, sustainability, and cultural context. The firm is deeply rooted in phenomenology, crafting experiential spaces through masterful use of light, materiality, and form. Holl’s visionary approach, exemplified in iconic projects such as the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art’s Bloch Building and Simmons Hall at MIT, embodies his philosophy of “phenomenal transparency”—an architecture that transcends the physical to engage with the metaphysical, creating deeply resonant and meaningful environments.

“The idea is to make discoveries while designing, not just have a preconceived idea and force it on the world.” – Steven Holl
