—info

  1. drooopi is an architecture office rethinking where and how we live.
  2. drooopi offers architectural services for projects of all types, scales, and budgets: houses and housing; restaurant, retail, and brand experiences; arts centers; installations; and more. Our approach is grounded in finding dogmatically rational solutions that challenge presumptions, expressed with a refined and playful aesthetic sensibility.
  3. drooopi is technically a cheeky acronym for “Davis Richardson Office of Objects, Projects, and Images,” meaning we design and make drawings of architecture and related things. drooopi as a name implies the reconsideration of preconceived notions: a building that droops is typically considered to be failing. What opportunities are there for defying conventional wisdom that could produce better buildings, more interesting spaces?
  4. drooopi is led by Davis Richardson, a licensed architect in New York and Texas.

Williamsburg Multifamily 


Multi-family Development
Williamsburg, Brooklyn, NY
Client Withheld
2022 (Completed at Overlay Office)

A Concept Design for a small developer in Williamsburg explores sculptural massing as a way to provide more outdoor space and natural light which is typically reserved for top floors in infill architecture. This concept would serve as the starting point for the “Playing House” exhibition entry.
