AsOne is a design studio exploring the quiet phenomena of nature through architecture and art.
Exploring the quiet phenomena of nature reveals a creative intelligence throughout the world.
Subtle forces, patterns, and conditions transform landscapes and repeat across time and space.
These phenomena can generate conceptual ideas. Ideas that build relationships, shape forms, and unlock new possibilities.
A system emerges from all around us — interconnected, infinite and expansive.
Everything is everywhere.
About AsOne
Founded by architect and artist Paul Hunnicutt and located in Boulder, Colorado,
AsOne is a studio shaped by the creative intelligence of nature.
We design residential architecture and extend our ideas through art and objects,
forming a cohesive creative practice.
Architecture is the primary medium for our ideas. We design contemporary homes shaped by the creative intelligence of nature — where concepts derived from natural phenomena guide form, space, material, and experience.
Explore the Tectonic House, a modern custom home by AsOne Architecture in Boulder, Colorado. Inspired by the quiet phenomena of tectonic plate movement, the design lifts and fractures into sculpted volumes that gather natural light, frame views of the landscape, and transform geological forces into architecture.
A house shaped by tectonic forces lifts and breaks into lofted spaces as a mountain-like roofscape gathers light and sky throughout the interior.
Explore the Folded House, a modern custom home by AsOne Architecture in Boulder, Colorado. Inspired by the quiet phenomena of folded mountain landforms, the design transforms geological forces into architecture through folded roof planes, natural light, carefully framed views, and a seamless connection between home and landscape.
FOLDED
A continuous, dynamic living space sits beneath an expansive roof shaped by the folded mountain skyline beyond.
Artwork emerges from the architectural process.
Ideas first discovered in nature extend into drawings, sculptures, and objects as a way to generate architectural form.
Over time, each piece moves beyond architecture and evolves into its own independent exploration.
We explore natural phenomena as a source of creative intelligence. Each icon represents a condition distilled from the natural world and transformed into a conceptual tool that sparks architectural and artistic ideas. These phenomena form the foundation of our process, shaping our work across scales and mediums.
