NOA is a collective of architects and interior designers founded in 2011 by Stefan Rier and Lukas Rungger. Through its over ten years of experience, the studio has established itself as an industry standard for hospitality architecture and design, with completed projects scattered across the Alps and new concepts being put into motion in the Netherlands, Croatia, the USA, and the Caribbean. Following an always curious and never conventional approach, NOA has expanded its portfolio over the past years with its creation of novel architectural categories. These include the Ötzi Peak viewing platform on the Val Senales glacier, the Transsensorial Gateway sound installation for INTERNI Creative Connections and the competition proposal for the new European Library in Milan. The firm's core philosophy revolves around seeing the project as a path to knowledge, and as a tool to tell stories; bringing additional value to the places where NOA architectural works become embedded.
