What’s UP?

Unearthed Practice is a design studio led by cofounders Christopher Loofs and Jordan Loofs. We seek to identify the mundane elements of the everyday that have fallen invisible and, through quality design, render them visible as a means to change the way people experience and think about the built environment. We create structures, furniture, objects, artworks, exhibitions, images, writings, and more. 

We are always open to exploring new projects, new collaborations, and new interests. Come and ask... “What’s UP?”
