Description

Archea Associati's interests and research activities move from the landscape to the city, from building to design and, while focusing on architecture, the projects range from graphics to publishing with the direction and editorial staff of the international architecture magazine "Area" from exhibitions to applied research.

Archea practices at the intersection of art, architecture and the factory. These architects collaborate with living artists and with artists from the past, and they develop a relationship not only with a material but also with its fabricators. In a symbiotic working relationship, the Archea studio and factories with which it collaborates trade knowledge and invention, the factory performing invaluable research that would normally be outside an architect's purview and financial reach.
