I'm Nicole Stout—
Designer, researcher, strategist, and founder of both Resilience by Design and NS Studio Designs.
I seek edge cases and momentum in a rapidly shifting climate and through our perpetually evolving communities.
About Me
Architecture should be built to adapt, endure, and evolve.
My work is rooted in sustainability, resilience, and systems-thinking— I was trained to seek solutions that are both practical and visionary. I believe architecture can be a tool for shaping better futures, whether through small-scale interventions or large, transformative frameworks. With every project, I aim to challenge conventions and create spaces that stand strong and feel gentle, no matter the challenge.
Let’s build something that lasts.
