Open Volume Studio

OLJ Designs LTD is a boutique architectural design practice, capable of working on projects of all size from very large school to tiny loft conversions. With particularly close attention to the use of light, design and the home environment, coupled with our environmental and material research interests, we aim to provide projects which can add value and implement meaningful change in the lives of our clients. Research is an important part of OLJ Designs Ltd as we continue to grow and aim to push the boundaries both within architectural academia and in our built environment.
Olivier Jauniaux's personal research on one side focus's on Architecture's historical relationship to philosophy and politics and on the other is deeply engaged in how light and materiality can be used to change the atmosphere and our experience of architecture within the city. Olivier Jauniaux is now an educator and studio tutor of undergraduate architecture at London South Bank University.
