Studio dmau is a studio for public space design and research. We design and research neighbourhoods and public spaces from the principle that participation and spatial equality are fundamental to how places are made. Our work combines formal placemaking with participatory process, creating inclusive spaces that foster deep connections between communities and their surroundings.
We design spaces and make films about places.

Film and Photography
We approach film and photography as urban research: practices of observation and community engagement grounded in the documentary tradition. Documentary practice as a method of observation, community engagement, and visual analysis of how cities and places work. The work runs through and alongside the design practice.
