ONE TO ONE

PROFILE

One to One is now based in Honolulu, Hawai’i, and directed by founder and principal Nicholas Locke (b.1979) . Founded in 2012, the practice has been engaged with a large range of clients for single family homes, multi-generational homes, mixed-use commerical developments and many adaptive re-use projects that give new life to aging buildings.

APPROACH

One to One strives to make environments where the distinction between architecture, nature and ecology are a cohesive whole. Embracing collaboration, we work with several other thinkers and makers who share a common respect for the natural world, fulfilling an increasing demand for solution based designs for many different living standards, and quality execution. For each project, which exist across a wide range of scales, One to One explores issues such as spatial systems, privacy and acoustical management systems, building materials/techniques, and renewable energy systems.

ACADEMIC ACTIVITY

Nicholas Locke has taught at multiple Universities at various levels, including Columbia University, Woodbury University, Yonsei University & University of Hawai’i at Manoa. His lectures and seminars investigate continuity in contemporary construction practices in both rural and urban contexts and sustainable material science.
