What if our built environment could provide the same mental, physical, and social benefits of the natural world?
At CLB Studio, we believe in the transformative power of nature to elevate spaces and enhance human well-being. Biophilic design is at the heart of our practice, guiding us to create environments that blend modern innovation with the natural world. Our design process involves the latest technologies in environmental analysis and its design applications from the beginning of the project.
Whether in homes, workplaces, resorts, hospitals or urban landscapes, we integrate elements like greenery, natural light, and organic materials to create spaces that support well-being, boost productivity, and enhance sustainability.
CLB Studio is a London-based architectural, landscape, and urban design practice founded in 2022 by Carolina López Blanco. After 11 years at Zaha Hadid Architects, where she contributed to iconic global projects, Carolina launched CLB Studio to bring a fresh, nature-centred approach to design combined with technology. Her previous experience also includes roles at KPF and Will Alsop @ Rmjm.
We are architects with a passion for landscape and urban design, driven by the belief that well-designed environments foster well-being and sustainability. Advanced parametric tools and processes for environmental analysis are utilized to inform the design and its final outcomes.
We don’t just design with nature in mind—we incorporate natural experiences that engage the senses, from the feel of organic textures to the sound of flowing water and the warmth of sunlight. Our designs bring the outdoors in, fostering a deep connection between people and their surroundings.
