studioRON is an art + design collective whose speculative and contract work is pursued through the development and fabrication of architecturally focused drawings, prototypes, furniture and architecturally scaled installations.
studioRON’s work is anchored in gravity. It emphasizes process and is grounded in materials, machines, fabrication, multimedia-based drawings and experimentation. The work is fueled by site, research, and speculation. The work prioritizes discovery and craft over the final output; no object is cherished. The collective values curiosity and exploration on their journey with materials, processes, collaborations, and fabrication. The collective brings its full energy and passion, along with an open mind and spirit to the work.
studioRON has designed and fabricated installations for the WUHO Gallery for Art and Architecture in 2011, the Philadelphia AIA National Convention’s 2016 Parklet Design Competition and Design Philadelphia’s 2016 Pearl Street Passage with BCJ Architects. In 2017 they helped lead an art, design + fabrication studio in collaboration with the James Madison and Temple University Art and Architecture departments. As well as various installations for Temple University’s department of Architecture and private collectors. studioRON has been selected for and attended the Ikea Bauhaus Summer Workshop in Dessau, Germany, umbau’s studioKRAKOW workshop and exhibit in 2016, 2017, 2018, in Krakow, Poland and has had speculative projects published in the Bartlett School of Architecture’s Drawing Futures.
studioRON was founded in 2009 at the Tyler School of Art and Architecture, in Philadelphia, PA, USA.
