The Studio
Studio 17 is a design led architecture practice founded by Sam Hargreaves. Built on a commitment to craft, clarity, and purpose, the studio was born from a desire for creative autonomy and design excellence, offering a more thoughtful and tailored approach to architecture.
With a focus on bespoke residential work, Studio 17 delivers projects that are refined, contextually responsive, and deeply considered.
Our process is defined by collaboration and care, we believe in creating spaces that feel timeless, grounded and meaningful to those who inhabit them.
