Creative + Technical
studio|LB combines Studio NYL’s renowned building enclosure and structural engineering capabilities with Lerch Bates’s deep expertise across Building Science and Building Flow that delivers Total Building Performance™.
Simulations > Assumptions
We apply advanced analysis tools—structural modeling, pedestrian and vertical transportation simulations, hygrothermal analysis—to ensure systems meet demanding performance, safety, and durability requirements.
Creative Use
We engineer complex geometries with emerging materials such as ultra high performance concrete, mass timber, ETFE, and high performance glazing.
Sustainability Champions
We champion resilience and sustainability with Total Building Performance™ design that meets aggressive energy codes, reduces embodied carbon and performs across challenging occupant and climate environments.
Kit of Parts
We ensure constructability and cost alignment by pairing elegant engineering with practical, buildable detailing and construction friendly documentation.
