MetroStudio, LLC, established its New Orleans office in 2006. Our personnel offer extensive experience in design, construction and project management. Practice areas include certified historic renovation, institutional/education projects, aviation projects, commercial projects, museums, high-rise office towers, multifamily developments, hospitality projects and single-family residential.

Rather than specializing in any one area of practice, the firm benefits from the experience of working across an array of project types. MetroStudio utilizes a collaborative approach to design where client, consultant, builder and firm personnel work together to address the challenges and desires inherent to any project. We believe that architecture must be specific and responsive to the challenges surrounding each project. Each site and project is unique; the individual conditions, be they climate, topography, program, budget or aspiration, must all be given the proper respect and response. MetroStudio firmly believes in architecture’s ability to provide lasting solutions to the issues inherent to our physical, social and cultural environments.

metrostudio has garnered national recognition for its ability to formulate inventive and expedient solutions to the problems of the built environment.

We utilize Building Information Modeling (BIM) in the development and documentation of our clients’ project solutions. This system allows the firm to fully test and coordinate project requirements and information between the owner, consultants, contractors and fabricators. The firm routinely utilizes BIM during construction and bidding to help illustrate key project challenges and requirements to bidders and sub-contractors, resulting in fewer delays and improved risk management.

Since its inception, MetroStudio has consistently worked to develop strong partnerships with a variety of regulatory agencies in an effort to support our clients’ need for timely project approvals. We have successfully provided support to our clients for zoning approvals, variances, conditional-use approvals, Historic District approvals, State Fire Marshal appeals/approvals, DHH approvals and much more. We understand that this is a key component of the services that we provide.

MetroStudio will continue to grow and develop with our clients and our community, expanding both in terms of size and scope of services. We recognize that every problem is an opportunity to employ creativity and ingenuity for lasting and positive effect.
