STUDIO/
Material and fabrication experiments are at the core of PATH's working method. The work evolves through a feedback loop always moving between design and making - try something, evaluate it, transform it, see it in a new way. This curiosity to explore material properties and processes along with the continual testing of ideas through prototypes reveals new potentials for design. PATH leverages this curiosity, experience with traditional techniques, and a keen understanding of digital technologies to inform our sensibilities.
PATH is a creative design studio founded by Matt Hutchinson. Though trained as an architect, his interests go beyond the typical constraints of architecture and span a variety of scales and types, testing ideas in the forms of lighting, furniture, products, architectural components, installations, etc.
Matt’s previous experience, ranging from Vincent James Associates, to SHoP Architects, and to FACE Design (among others) has afforded him a diverse and multi-disciplinary perspective. He earned his Bachelor of Architecture from Kent State University and his Master of Architecture with distinction from Yale University.
