Ste Marie

Ste Marie is a studio that imagines possible worlds—and then fosters and creates them. From intimate restaurants to beautiful hotels to full-scale mixed-use developments, each project begins with a distillation: of place, of purpose, of human experience. The results are not fixed in time, but quietly challenge convention, inviting people to move through space with awareness and emotional engagement.

With projects across North America, from Vancouver and Italy to Chicago and Los Angeles, Ste Marie has become known for crafting environments that merge narrative and function. Their design language balances aspiration with use. Their spaces feel remembered even when entirely new. Each detail is shaped by both intuition and insight—drawn from data, operations, and the rhythms of daily life.
