Studio · Miami, Florida
A studio where art becomes architecture.
Aktual Design brings together interior design, custom fabrication and sculptural art. We turn walls, furniture and architectural elements into pieces with an identity of their own, for homes and commercial spaces in Miami and Florida.
Our story
Adrian Castro
Artist and designer · Founder and creative director
From his Miami studio, design, sculpture and fabrication work as one practice: every wall, every piece of furniture and every architectural element becomes a piece with its own identity.
- The artistconceives the piece
- The studiodevelops and fabricates it
- On siteinstalls and lights it
We don’t decorate spaces. We create pieces that become part of the architecture.
Light is our signature
Warm, indirect light, between 2700 and 3000 K, grazes the texture and reveals the piece. We plan it from the first drawing and build it into the wall, the furniture and the relief.
The 4D Method
Every proposal is weighed on four planes at once, not in four steps.
- Designand composition
- Technical dimensionand feasibility
- Desireand emotional experience
- Commercial development
