Slow looking
Every project starts with listening and looking — before a single line is drawn.

The Studio
A practice built on listening, looking, and the slow craft of architecture.
Our Story
I started Outwright as a small, deliberate practice — a place where architecture, interiors and research could sit beside one another and shape each project from the first sketch to the last detail.
Our work spans private homes, hospitality, civic and research-led projects. What binds it together is one conviction: good buildings begin with careful questions and end in careful making.
Philosophy
We design slowly and build with intent. Material, light and proportion are not finishing touches — they are the substance of the work.
Founder and studio lead
Allan Metto.
I’m the architectural designer behind Outwright Atelier. My focus is context-driven work — homes, commercial, institutional and hospitality projects across Kenya, each designed around the place it sits in.
Every project is founder-led. I stay close to the brief, the drawings, the consultant conversations and the decisions that shape how the work is eventually built.

Studio Structure
Outwright Atelier is founder-led by Allan Metto. The site presents him as the sole founder and public team member, keeping the studio story focused, direct and personal.
How We Work
Models over renders
We build an idea physically to test it, before we polish it on a screen.
Detail is the design
Execution and detailing carry as much weight as the concept itself.
Rooted in place
Climate, culture and craft set the brief — not the other way around.
