O-D-A is an individual architecture studio, founded by architect Vika Pranaitytė and based in Kaunas, Lithuania. It’s usually one-man atelier, but each project gathers its own team around.
O-D-A focuses on practice, research, and experimentation. The field of work is wide, combining projects of various scales, including architectural and urban design, interior design, exhibition architecture, graphic design, and architecture book design.
Vika Pranaitytė is a co-founder and currator (along with Eglė Januškienė and Lina Pranaitytė) of the pop-up experimental architecture gallery A-XY, which launched its architectural events in 2023 in Kaunas.
She is also one of the organizers of the Children’s Architecture Festival, which started in 2023 in Kaunas (idea – Eglė Januškienė).
Vika Pranaitytė also develops her own personal artistic architecture projects—visions, primarily using architectural graphics and illustration techniques.
Her fields of interest include urban utopias and unrealized projects, as well as the exploration of urban atmospheres, particularly themes of sadness and melancholy. She is the founder of the secret urban melancholics’ community, ‘Neon Children of Saturn.’
She has also published the architectural graphic novel What if I am You.
