Design Philosophy

Rain brings new life and possibility.  Rain cleanses and refreshes the world and us.   As a design-led practice, Rain Studio focuses on delivering solutions that serve the lifetime needs of the end-user occupants of our buildings.  The spaces we create are beautiful, liveable, and responsive; we aspire to create an environment of abundance.

The relationships between people and place are at the heart of all of our work at Rain Studio, and we believe in a synergetic approach of mutual respect and responsibility, to design and to humanity’s place within the natural world.

Designing for the future is a fundamental aspect of our work, recognising that the needs of households and businesses change over time.  We believe in working with nature to create sustainable built environments.

5 Principles Central to Our Practice

•     Time - to live, to breathe, to be.

•     Ecology - the 'tangled bank' of life, and our place within it

•     Locality - place, people, culture.

•     Community - relationships & the layering of public vs private space

•     Change - inevitable and full of potential
