INFO

LOT is an award winning architecture and design firm with offices in New York and in Greece focusing on applying strong design concepts with consciousness and pragmatism. LOT works on an array of projects ranging in scale and complexity from spatial installations to interior spaces and buildings of high capacity architecture.

LOT was founded in 2012 by Leonidas Trampoukis and Eleni Petaloti. In 2016 LOT formed Objects of Common Interest. a design studio with the aim in creating objects and still life installations in search of inspirational moments in materiality, process and concept, sharing a common vision in flowing seamlessly through interdisciplinary practices blurring the boundaries between the artistic and the pragmatic, between form and abstraction, merging the founders’ backgrounds in architecture and art.

Work has been featured in press including The Wall Street Journal, T magazine, Wallpaper*, Elle Decor, FRAME and PHAIDON publishers and presented in exhibitions, such as the Venice Architecture Biennale, Greek Architecture Biennale, and the Salone del Mobile in Milan. In 2013 LOT was shortlisted for the European Piranesi Awards and in 2014 was selected for the Wallpaper* Architects Directory, the iconic magazine’s list of the best architectural talent from around the globe.
