OTTO is a design studio designing single story small buildings,

Our team built their reputation as the in house design team for Hutsmith, one of the UKs most prestigious cabin makers.

Over 120 of our designs have now been built.

Our interest is purely ‘small footprint’ architecture as well as material innovation and modern methods of construction. Our mission is to push the architectural envelope for small buildings, whilst being respectful of the material provenance and waste reduction.

Alongside our design development, we have a making space that enables us to prototype ideas and models.

Collaboration is a big part of our design development; we actively encourage these and many of our legacy buildings have been designed alongside 3rd party architects and designers.

Often, we take basic sketch ideas from clients and work them up into drawings and finished buildings .
