OUR SERVICES
Our approach combines sustainable architecture, green buildings, evolutionary biology, material science and engineering.
At ODE, sustainable architecture stems from a Creative Engineering© design approach. Our integrated design approach combines nature, material studies and engineering from the concept design phase. It has been tested and proven over the last 15 years while ODE’s founder, Dr. Kody Kato, worked under the direction of Dr. Ken Yeang in Malaysia and Byoungsoo Cho in South Korea.
Since then, we have used this multi-disciplinary approach on international projects, such as residences, offices, museums, bridges, symphony halls, factories and exhibition spaces.
Creative Engineering© centres around the entire user experience. Through a holistic architectural design that prioritises details like natural ventilation and daylight, ODE integrates material science with energy-efficient building design. From zero energy buildings to sustainable solutions, ODE’s approach ensures that every detail resonates with your needs.
ODE’s design approach, termed Creative Engineering©, seamlessly integrates sustainable architecture, material science and engineering, evolutionary biology and the environment. This involves creatively exploring principles from engineering, nature, and utilising a variety of computational studies to design zero energy buildings with low-carbon materials.
At ODE, the natural environment is integral to every design. We embrace the sun, wind and landscape as components of our creative process. Through sustainable architecture and nature-integrated design, we create adaptive architectural solutions that respect the environment. Innovative green strategies allow us to merge aesthetics with sustainability, bringing nature into every space.
