MA Studio & Partners company established in February 2020 as the heritage of the famous design office DEA Studio shpk with 2 of its 3 founders Ervin Taçi and Klodiana Emiri Taçi. Both partners in their early professional formation have been drawn to the interaction of different levels of the degree of thinking: the degree of the city and that of living, thinking in abstraction, and thinking realistically. They do not seek the cohesion of these elements in a fixed dogmatic theme, but beyond, in different concepts and concrete projects. Continuous exploration was not used to find definitive answers, but to raise questions in order to continue with the reflective and research method of work in order to constantly find innovations that can move society forward.

Awards of the office:

2020 Second price in the International Competition “Prishtina Concert Hall”
2021 Second price in the International Competition “Prishtina Arena Sport Hall” (5,000 spectators)
