Our Practice
Untethered by typology or scale, our practice maintains an unwavering commitment to craft, community, and architectural excellence
Bold Audacity with Deep Professional Experience
OU embodies the audacity and spirit of a nimble design practice, paired with the confidence and depth typically found in larger, well-established firms. This rare fusion allows us to deliver fearless, expressive designs, backed by decades of expertise—offering clients a unique balance of bold creativity and dependable execution.
Cultural Alchemists
OU thrives on exploring uncharted territory, drawing from Los Angeles’ role in the global cultural vanguard of art, entertainment, fashion, and music. Consistently fueled by these influences, we craft environments that breathe, inspire, and spark human creativity, fostering genuine connection and innovation.
A Lo-Fi/ Hi-Fi Approach
Our lo-fi/hi-fi approach represents a balance between raw, intuitive exploration and refined, precision-driven execution. We value iteration and adaptability—starting with the basics, testing ideas quickly and tangibly, and allowing for organic discovery before refining through more advanced and technical means. This encourages experimentation without fear of failure, pushing boundaries in a way that keeps the design process dynamic and responsive.
Envisioning the Practice they always wanted to be part of...
In 2018, inspired by each other’s boundless curiosity, Co-Founders Christian Robert, Ben Anderson, and Shawn Gehle, alongside COO Lindsay Green set out to build the fearless, innovative, and future-focused practice they always wanted to be a part of.
OFFICEUNTITLED (OU) quickly evolved from a small team into a dynamic, diverse practice of architects, designers, and strategists, collaborating seamlessly across offices in Los Angeles and New York, with team members across the globe. Propelled by an uninhibited ethos that combines ambitious design with deep professional experience, the practice consistently delivers thoughtful yet unexpected design solutions.
Guided by the collective expertise of its founders and talented senior design leadership, the practice boasts a diverse portfolio spanning architecture, interiors, master planning, and strategic consulting initiatives. As leadership they are committed to fostering and expanding their dedicated, and supremely talented team, to drive the OU into the future.
