Philosophy

The studio was founded in 2000 in Milan after some earlier collaboration in the Netherlands. Both of us come from a very different backgrounds, and we want to keep this variety in our work. We collected influences from all around the world, and it is important to us, not to be bound to a certain place or style.

Mainly we deal with small-scale restoration projects, where we are confronted with construction details, interior design and work direction; and at the same time we are busy with large-scale projects, where we have to organize the functions, create atmospheres and solve urban problems.
