uxo architects is a worker-owned, full-service architecture practice that works across scales - from furniture, to private residences, to multifamily housing and community design. We operate on a cooperative basis according to cooperative principles. we believe this not only improves the conditions of our collective labor, but also its architectural and social outcomes.
our position on practice extends to our projects - we seek out and welcome clients with an interest in alternative modes of development such as community land trusts (CLT), cooperative housing and businesses, and other community-serving programs. we are experienced in early stage consulting on CLT formation, cooperative business development, and financial and regulatory frameworks for affordable housing. we find that such early stage involvement in and commitment to our clients’ broader visions leads to the best possible design outcomes.
our background in private residential projects has supported us as we expand into this mission-aligned work, and we continue to take pride in our close client relationships and craft-oriented approach.
