ABOUT US
CENTERED IN
COLLABORATION
Our work is created by more than tools, it's shaped by perspective.
Virda Studios was born at the intersection of precision and expression. An engineer's discipline meets an artists intuition.
It is a way of living centered on collaboration, community, and a shared commitment to meaningful creation.

CHRISTIAN HOUPE
CEO | CO- FOUNDER
Christian Houpe is an engineer and builder from North Carolina, where hands-on work and problem-solving were part of everyday life. His experience spans vertical farming, passive solar greenhouse design, geothermal systems, and bathhouse environments. He has led multi faceted teams of architects, engineers, and contractors from project inception to commissioning. Christian brings a systems-driven approach to Virda Studios, bridging engineering, fabrication, and compliance to create spaces and products that are efficient, durable, and thoughtfully executed.
Raised in a blue collar household in Pittsburgh, PA - Frankie's work ethic was instilled in him at a young age. He has pursued art for as long as he can remember, culminating in a bachelor's degree in fine art focusing in woodworking and furniture design. He has spent years running fabrication shops and leading complex residential and commercial projects. He has a personable approach to collaborating with interiors designers, architects, and creatives to help bring any vision to reality. Frankie believes the best work comes from connection. Connection to materials, to process, and to people. His work reflects that belief: thoughtful, enduring pieces meant to live alongside people, gathering meaning over time.
