APPROACH


Superficium Studio is an architectural design practice that explores design for contemporary cultures and virtual environments through a range of scales and mediums. We are architects and designers who collaborate through interests in technology, anthropology and design.

We approach each project according to their distinctive nature, using a range of experimental design tools and methodologies to provide unique design opportunities. Our work speculates on future possibilities of architecture at the intersection between technology and culture. Although these are unbuilt works we look to continue to do this in the physical production of our designs. Our team is experienced in the UK and internationally. Members of our team are also involved with academia and research in London.




METHODOLOGY





Our team, though small, engages in a broad spectrum of disciplines and interests that are fundamental to our thinking, design and the mediums through which we communicate. We are not only architects, we are educators in architectural academia; digital enthusiasts exploring the real time game engine interaction; tech hobbyists who build and optimise our own workstations; animators who construct digital worlds for short films; and designers investigating design from the scale of the body to the scale of the building with a specific interest in the transitions between these scales.

Our core members have collaborated on numerous projects with a particular focus on experimental and speculative domestic conditions, from floating homes to assemblies of community living spaces and biohacking cellular architectural skins. As a young team we value the engagement of emerging individuals and have collaborated with young professionals and students on previous projects. We do this through a shared ambition to reimagine and challenge the future environments we inhabit.
