Tallinn-based, studio ARGUS is a close-knit collective of design professionals with over 20 years of experience in interior design, fine arts, and architecture.
Our design philosophy is an impactful, vibrant dialogue: deeply rooted in a Nordic aesthetic, and embracing diverse cultural influences, we reconcile contemporary vision with existing heritage.
Our integrative approach ranges from renovations of culturally sensitive sites such as Haapsalu Castle, Kuressaare Castle, and Alexander’s Cathedral to institutional projects including the Embassies in London and Moscow. Additionally, we provide residential and commercial project services, such as the Park Hotel in Viljandi and Fahle Gallery Street in Tallinn.
Our international work has been critically acclaimed – including nominations for the Mies van der Rohe Awards in 2019 and 2022 – and featured by AIT, Archdaily, and Dezeen, among other publications.
In addition to our commissioned work studio ARGUS’ ongoing projects include active research projects and teaching programs.
