Among our interests is that of exploring the use of innovative methods of architectural design by favoring a “form-making” approach and investigation through multiple “media”.
Using advanced prototyping techniques such as “robotic fabrication” and “additive manufacturing” we are interested in redefining the possibilities of contemporary architecture by trying to address new solutions to existing problems or to raise new ones.
