As a collective, we strive to challenge conventions and create an innovative front in design and architecture. We achieve this through professional workshops, advisory services, consultation, and mentoring with the support of our network of specialists from various fields, including academic researchers, practicing designers, architects, and artists. Additionally, we offer support, advice, and solidarity to fellow designers and architects.


It's important for us to emphasize that we continuously strive to re-challenge each project we undertake, both aesthetically and through in-depth research and planning. Our knowledge-sharing initiative is experimental and collaborative, built on the belief that knowledge should be exchanged through dialogue and shared curiosity, not through a didactic approach. Together with you, we aim to develop the right methodologies for creating and learning, evolving as we go. With your support, we will expand the tools we share in workshops and courses, offering an alternative to traditional academic institutions. We're excited to collaborate with you!
