Studio Fink’s philosophy evolved organically from its practice — project by project, over four decades, across four continents — at every register a city offers: the permanent and the temporary, the monumental and the intimate, the functional and the playful.
Cities rarely fail because a single element is poorly designed. They often underperform because their elements never quite speak to each other. Studio Fink has built a practice shaped by that observation — one that moves with equal conviction across urban art and public realm, landscape, ecology, 24-hour city cycles, cultural animation, and master planning. The evidence is in the range: a kinetic light and laser installation on the tallest building in Europe one decade, a self-funded 27-hectare wilderness park and Europe’s biggest land art from construction rubble the next.
Cities are feltbefore they are understood. Studio Fink works on both — the felt and the understood. Transforming how a city feels, at the scale that matters, with the people it matters to.
Studio Fink carries forward the creative linea ge of Art2Architecture (2003–2006) and FoRM Associates (2006–2013), co-founded with architect Igor Marko. The work across all three practices, and Peter Fink’s creative leadership, has received widespread recognition for the quality, ambition and social impact of its work across numerous national and international awards.

Peter Fink
Not three lenses, but one.
Peter Fink was born in London, raised in Czechoslovakia where he studied engineering, followed by art and philosophy in London. Over four decades of practice, these disciplines fused into a single way of seeing cities.
Through teaching at Central Saint Martins, the Architectural Association, Bartlett UCL, and Peking University Peter has engaged deeply with how a new generation of architects and designers think about cities. Through CABE Space — the UK government’s public realm advisory body — he helped shape national standards for public space as they were being formed.
His work has drawn sustained critical attention across books, journals, and media. That recognition was affirmed in 2021, when CODAworx-the world’s leading platform for commissioned art in the built environment - named Peter one of 25 Creative Revolutionaries worldwide.
