Taichi Hirata

Studio tata is an architecture and design firm based in Kyoto. Gradually established since 2015, the studio has developed its practice through close collaborations with architects, artists, and craftsmen, working on projects ranging from residential designs and apartment renovations to offices, restaurants, mobile retail solutions, and furniture.

While deepening our contemplation of space, form, and materials, we have responded precisely to the diverse needs required of us, and have also carefully addressed the unspoken needs and often hidden desires that lie beneath the surface, ensuring nothing is overlooked.

Our aspiration is to create spaces that harmonize functionality with an aesthetic that resonates deeply, enriching living environments in harmony with their surroundings. By integrating elements like space, form, streetscapes, functionality, and human sensibilities, we design places that are rich in character and depth, offering both harmony and inspiration.
