studioMode's photostream  

Mode is a design office that leverages computational expertise through design research, teaching, and consulting.

Mode utilizes diverse methodologies including code, associative and relational strategies, as well as digital fabrication in the production of material organizations and the formation of space.

While we are interested in intense iterative design processes, we believe the evolution and contextualization of these procedures in a broader social and cultural domain is both our primary objective and the means for embedding interest and significance into design.

Mode is Ronnie Parsons and Gil Akos.

Ronnie holds a Master's of Science in Architecture from The Ohio State University and has studied abroad at The Architectural Association, London as well as The University of Applied Arts in Vienna. Ronnie has assisted in design studios at The Ohio State University, Pratt Institute, and Princeton University.

Gil holds both a Master's of Science in Advanced Architectural Design (MS.AAD) from Columbia University and a Master's of Architecture from the University of Kansas (M.ARCH). He has assisted in the teaching of design studios at Columbia University, Pratt Institute, and Princeton University.
