About the Studio
KUATRO is an industrial design studio based in South Florida, specialized in design services and solutions for both residential and commercial use. Our goal is to interpret the client needs giving sense and functionality to the project.
The basis for our designs is rooted in simple and functional forms and the appreciation of new materials and construction methods. We bring to each task a contemporary aesthetic that emphasizes the values of clarity and simplicity.
Aligned with this problem-solving exercise, we also guide our customers through regulatory issues, budget concerns, structural requirements, sustainable measures, environmental responsibility, material choices and functional needs to ultimately help them arrive at a place of ease and clarity.
