In a recent episode on the Futurespaces channel, hosted by Josh Goldblum (Bluecadet), sponsored by hyz studio, Primo shared the philosophy behind Studio O+A's approach to workplace design — where narrative always comes before aesthetics, and the most meaningful spaces are the ones rooted in something real. This philosophy has shaped many award winning projects for Slack, adidas, McDonald's, Yelp, Microsoft, and Hyundai Motor Company.

Happy Earth Day! O+A is taking a moment to revisit some of our favorite projects with outdoor spaces. From works areas that open up to nature, to outdoor gyms, these designs remind us that's keeping the natural environment in mind while designing is a commitment to the physical and mental well-being of the people who use them everyday. 🌎

From sketch → screen → team, here’s a look behind the design of something special for our studio!
We pulled apart our dimensional plus symbol and rebuilt it as an expanded floor plan, then brought it to life on hoodies and t-shirts.
Huge thanks to our neighbors and SF’s oldest screen printer, Babylon Burning (@babylonburninginc ) for printing these for us!! They turned out so good!!➕✨
Modeled by the team (canine coworkers included).

For Primo Orpilla, Co-founder + Principal of Studio O+A, it has always been about more than just workplace. It’s about the intersection of human behavior and the physical environment.
In the latest issue of @mix.interiors , Primo dives into the Studio O+A journey—from early days of being an original workplace disruptor, to recent culture-driven work for global leaders like Nike, Facebook, and McDonald’s. As he shares in the article: the workplace is part of our lives — we should bring the world into it, not leave it outside.

Happy Holidays From Studio O+A!
As the year comes to a close, we want to wish you a joyful holiday season and a bright, inspiring year ahead. We’re grateful for the opportunities, collaborations, and connections that made this past year so meaningful.
To celebrate the season and look ahead to what’s next, we asked everyone in our studio to create a collage reflecting what they’re most excited about this season and in the coming year. Each piece offers a glimpse into the ideas, inspirations, and energy we’re carrying forward.
We look forward to what the new year will bring and to continuing to create together.
