Dacha Office
(2026)
Brand identity
Website Dacha Office is a small residential architecture and interior design studio based in Seattle. Founded by a designer with family ties to Eastern Europe, the concept of a dacha was chosen to represent the studio because of its practical yet deeply personal nature. Dacha Office is built on promoting this balance and designing spaces for the way their clients live and approach life, without one-size-fits-most solutions.

The wordmark follows these same principles- simple, utilitarian, and legible with subtle variations in ink traps and ligatures that tie its curves to the brandmark.

The finished identity conveys restraint and sophistication in the small details that make it unique. Dacha is not so polished that it feels corporate or unapproachable to new homeowners, but it maintains a level of design and quality that prevents it from feeling amature.



The brandmark is inspired by an evolution of the lozenge shape, commonly used in Slavic imagery to represent protection and connectivity between earth and sky, and the distinctive curves of east-Slavic bochka roofs, or “onion domes”.
