Founded in 2003 by Charlie Lazor, Lazor/Office is a dynamic design practice committed to producing spaces that enhance our lives. We place primacy on place-making and developing sensitive, integrated responses to the sites we work on. The synthesis of form, material, and site is the constant focus of our endeavors, from research-driven investigations to realized projects. Interdisciplinary in nature, Lazor/Office has resisted becoming specialized in any particular aspect of design. The office handles a range of residential, commercial, and theoretical projects, with a scope that varies from furniture to architecture to building systems.

We seek design directives from bold clients and beautiful landsca

In 2003 Charlie Lazor founded LAZOR OFFICE / FlatPak to pursue a broadspectrum of design programs and scales, including architecture and environments. The design work at our office begins with identifying key needs and problems  through a process of observation and analysis to develop solutions that synthesize the complex whole into an elegant, holistic solution. The commands of the day; cost, sustainability, and new technology, housed within the constraints of the everyday world, govern our work. We use both the latest generation of digital fabrication technology or the simplest tool in the shop, to guide a design process that yields purposeful, valued forms that are easily made with minimal material and labor inputs and built to last. 

A successful design is not JUST a pretty form. It is a rigorously developed condition that requires cognitive and intuitive thought processes operating simultaneously to yield forms that are legible and useful, thereby extending the user’s potential to achieve their goal. Form for Lazor Office is more like a tool, something to be used to achieve an intention. When this condition is achieved, beauty is present, both as form and function, indivisible and synthesized. For Lazor Office, this is the pursuit of a holistic design solution.
