Madrid Río is a truly exceptional project. Undoubtedly, it is the most important project executed in Madrid over the last few decades and probably one of the most ambitious projects carried out in Europe in recent times. It is only comparable to the Big Dig, completed in Boston, USA. This is perhaps the first european project that truly integrates large infrastructure and the built urban fabric with the natural environment that surround them.
A series of reversible interventions within the ruins of the SNIA viscose factory in Rome experiment with the boundaries between the capabilities of nature and man.
Mycelium, a biodegradable material is implemented to achieve regenerative structures with no carbon footprints. By rethinking the role of built environment, spontaneously developing structures achieve monumentality through their unpredictability. These ´living buildings´ go through a continuous change of decay and evolution.
GROUNDS is a coffee hub in Prague’s developing area of Karlín. Tucked inside an inner yard of a vibrant office and residential street, the hub works as a neighborhood cafe where coffee is being served straight from its own roastery. In order to cut the costs but also learn how the architecture and spaces relate to their production processes, the construction was made hands-on and designed-by-building together with the coffee community running the place.
The project ,,BioProfile" is a research project of the BioMat department (Biobased Materials and Material Cycles in Architecture) at ITKE (Institute of Building Structures and Structural Design), University of Stuttgart, whose aim was the development of extruded and coextruded façade and window profiles as well as other exterior architectural applications, in particular façade panels made of biobased materials.

Through the attractive initiatiatives for the Medina de las Torres’ people and the adjacent villages, it is being carried out a transformation of the image and urbanistic aspect of the town, using waste & recicled materials from hospitals. This activities pretend to gather and involve all of the community, disregarding the age and genre.
The new Immaginario Scientifico Science Centre inhabits the "Porto Vecchio", an area heavily built in the late '800 and abandoned in the middle '900. The science museum has inserted lively and light elements into the central section of Warehouse 26, balancing and enriching the solidity of the old building. The new museum aims at involving the general public in the life of the international community that has made Trieste "the city of science".
The aim is to create a methodology that will clarify and facilitate municipalities decision-making during planning and realization of nature-based solutions rainwater retaining system in the urbanized area. Further, particular examples of possible solutions in an urbanized area are provided, based on the character of the city and its surrounding. The final document is a tool that will simplify to formulate requirements and criteria for municipalities.
The idea of this project is to create a green place for the students where they can socialize and spend time during breaks and after school. We would like to transform an existing building, a roof in particular, into a green roof. In this way we can integrate a living nature in construction and make common places for students more attractive and sustainable. Our intention is also plant some trees and plants around the building and make an outdoor living, relaxing area with a high sustainability.
