SLOT is an active and interdisciplinary architectural design studio. People from diverse professional disciplines contribute to this project.

Our work has reached a profound understanding of the human needs, enabling us to intertwine the constructive and philosophical sides of building.

As architects, we push design to its ultimate material consequences and aim for cultural connectivity: sense of usability, mathematics of space and a wide aesthetic research.
