Creating unique, visually advanced animations, models, graphics and web design, Studio2a combines the latest in CAD technology with unparalleled creativity and talent. Founding partners, Adam Kruvand and Adam Felchner, developed their unique capabilities while architecture students at the University of Kansas. Capitalizing on their shared passion for architecture and computer technology, the two formed a unique vision combining their educational training with their specialized talents and experiences. Honing their skills in Europe and throughout the United States, they realized that the demand for high-quality, cutting-edge digital media was not being met. Studio2a was formed.

In my experience there is one firm combining this capability for computer animation with both video and architecture experience and that is Studio2a. Adam Kruvand combines education, experience and fluency across both of the mediums of video and computer animation but brings an understanding of architectural design that is critical to the contribution this work can make. - Phil Hofstra, Principal, HOK Sport Expertise. Having infiltrated nearly all segments of creative culture, it is clear that high-end computer graphics and animation are more than just a passing fad. In the architecture industry they have become vital to not just the design process, but business development as well. Studio2a is able to bring a unique perspective and palette of skills that few designers, if any, can match. Being trained architects, founding principals Adam Kruvand and Adam Felchner possess the necessary visualization abilities to accurately bring architecture to life. Their resources and knowledge gained from years of dedication exclusively to the 3d industry enable them to quickly evaluate a project and produce a responsive solution. These abilities, combined with their extensive multi-media expertise, equals a rare, unparalleled unification of technical ability and creative vision. Studio2a s superior modeling capabilities added immeasurable value to the design development of one of our premier projects, as well as provided superb presentation materials to our client. - Eliel Alfon, Hughes Group Architects Effective. The value of seeing a project years before its completion is immeasurable. Creating visually realistic computer renderings, Studio2a allows design choices to be communicated and analyzed long before they are ever put into place. Interior designers are able to see how material, fabric, and color choices will look before committing the necessary resources to make them a reality, giving them greater experimental freedom and ensuring a successful project outcome every time. Clients are also able to utilize the realistic technology to generate interest from potential user groups, which can prove invaluable in garnering public support for a project, raising capital, selling advertising, or passing bond referendums. PROFILE Architects are in the 3-D business. Tools, like the drawings Studio2a produces, help us communicate our ideas to people.it was the only way we could have represented the bold design of that unbuilt project. - Reeves Wiedeman, Partner, Wiedeman Architects High Impact. There is no denying the impact of a visually striking, high quality computer animation or rendering.
