Who We Are


Our design firm, located in Arcadia, California, is dedicated to serving clients throughout the Southern California area with our comprehensive design services.


Architecture is the language of space, a medium through which we communicate our values, culture, and identity, shaping the world we inhabit and the way we interact with it.  Architecture is the art of creating spaces that not only serve a purpose but also evoke emotions, memories, and experiences, enriching the human spirit and enhancing our lives. These core values are instilled at Studio Thao to elevate the human experience. We believe that good design should not only serve the needs of people but also promote a healthy relationship with the built environment and the natural world.

Studio Thao offers a range of design services to its clients, including architectural design, interior design, and landscape design. These services are tailored to meet the specific needs and preferences of each client, and are designed to create functional and visually appealing spaces that reflect their personal style. Studio Thao’s design services are distinguished by our meticulous attention to detail, creative problem-solving, and a strong focus on biophilic design. By incorporating natural elements into the built-environment, Studio Thao seeks to create spaces that are in harmony with nature and that promotes a sense of calm and tranquility.
