How We Work
MODA operates as a focused studio practice, assembling bespoke teams of designers, craftspeople, fabricators, and technologists based on the needs of each project.
Our collaborators span multiple disciplines and geographies, allowing the studio to scale intelligently while maintaining a consistent design voice and level of craft.
Leadership
MODA was founded by Dustin Malstrom, a architect and creative director with two decades of experience working across architecture, experiential design, and cultural projects. His work is shaped by a systems-oriented approach — integrating space, material, technology, and narrative into cohesive environments.
The studio’s work draws from Malstrom’s background spanning architectural practice, studio environments, large-scale experiential projects, and international collaborations.
MODA is selective in its work, partnering with clients who value clarity, craft, and long-term relevance. The studio prioritizes thoughtful process over volume and views collaboration as a means to elevate ideas — not dilute them.
