Studio Shift

Recently named one of the "Top 20 Under 40" by Engineering News Record, Mario Cipresso is an award-winning architect with over 17 years of experience designing and executing a wide-range of significant, high-quality projects. Working closely with our clients, we create designs that are inventive, unique, and modern while simultaneously balancing budget and constructability. We hold extensive architectural experience and work across all project types and scales including single/multi-family residential, retail, restaurant, office, educational and cultural/institutional. Our experience encompasses both new construction and expansion/renovation even in cases where modern design intersects with traditional/historic architecture. We work with our clients from the earliest phases of a project by providing feasibility studies and site analysis through to concept design, design development and finally construction documentation and administration ensuring the quality of the end product. At any point in the process we can provide 3D renderings of the design to assist our clients and others in visualizing the project. We enjoy the design process in all forms and are dedicated to creating high-quality work that creates value for our clients.
