ABOUT

“Architecture is really about well-being. I think that people want to feel good in a space ... On the one hand it's about shelter, but it's also about pleasure.”

-Zaha Hadid

Studio Lally is led by Emily Lally, a registered architect and founder of the practice.

The studio was founded on the belief that architecture should actively support human health, comfort, and well-being. The environments we inhabit have a profound influence on how we feel, function, and live each day. Thoughtful design strengthens that connection.

As a Registered Architect and Certified Passive House Consultant (CPHC), Emily brings a careful balance of design sensitivity and building science expertise to every project. Her work is grounded in biophilic principles, material honesty, and a deep respect for place; resulting in homes that feel calm, grounded, and enduring.

Based in New Market, Maryland, Studio Lally provides custom residential architecture services throughout the state, with architect-designed plan sets available beyond Maryland.
