Buildings that Work
Commercial architecture that performs and belongs.
Commercial,
Inside and Out
Workplaces, hospitality, and mixed use. Buildings and their interiors designed as one, with modern elegance and a strong sense of place.
Discipline
Buildings that work,
rooms that welcome.
Forma Nova designs commercial projects where the building and its interiors answer to one vision: workplaces with energy, hospitality with warmth, and mixed use with a sense of place.
A commercial space is judged twice, once by how it performs and once by how it feels. We design for both, from the structure and envelope to the reception desk and the last light fixture.
Our commercial work spans headquarters, executive offices, and resort hospitality, in Chicago and beyond.
Inside and Out
Workplaces and hospitality, architecture and interiors by one team.
Light and Movement
Spaces organized around people and daylight.
Chicago Rooted
Resilient design for the local climate.
