The studio is founded by brother and sister Kivi Sotamaa & Tuuli Sotamaa and it is based in Helsinki, Finland.

We design human experiences. We founded Ateljé Sotamaa to explore and architect beauty, strategy and human experience in the digital age. We use the newest tools, concepts and materials to design and build life-changing experiences in the material world. Our mission is to delight. Our vision is a world less boring with more meaning.

Ateljé Sotamaa exists in a web of connections over which ideas and expertise are exchanged and spread, and from which game-changing innovation emerges. Based out of studio in Helsinki we create buildings, spaces, objects, communication, infrastructure and artworks that change the way people think, feel and behave.

We believe that design must appeal to our emotions, and seduce us into exploring new ways of being in the world. We combine experiential design with criticality and responsibility.
