What if our built environment could provide the same mental, physical, and social benefits of the natural world?
Today, communities and developers struggle to create places that truly connect people with nature. Conventional design often results in lifeless environments that undermine well-being, disconnect us from ecosystems, and waste time, resources, and opportunity.
At CLB Studio, we are on a mission to address this!
Founded in 2022 by Carolina López Blanco — with 18+ years of experience at KPF, Will Alsop@RMJM, and Zaha Hadid Architects — CLB Studio blends architecture, landscape, and urban design to create regenerative indoor and outdoor environments.
Our vision is simple: to create spaces people love — places that bring us closer to nature, promote well-being, and offer long-term value.
We focus on what we call Public Realm Architecture, the space where buildings and public space meet. We believe architecture should reach beyond the walls of buildings. It must restore ecosystems, foster social connection, and bridge the gap between private spaces and the public realm.
Guided by principles of Biophilic and Regenerative Design, we believe architecture should do more than meet human needs. It should restore ecosystems, nurture social and cultural well-being, and deepen our relationship with nature.
Whether designing urban landscapes, plazas, workplaces, resorts, or hospitals, we see every project as an opportunity to heal and regenerate. Our designs are living systems that awaken the senses, promote emotional well-being, and move beyond sustainability toward true regeneration.
