UNA is an international architecture studio driven by a strong cultural agenda. Operating at multiple scales with projects ranging from contemporary art foundations to exhibition designs, private houses and publications, UNA’s work is informed by critical research. Based in Hamburg and Venice, where the office built its foundation on the legacy of FWR Associati, UNA introduces radical thinking within historically charged sites. UNA is fuelled by the relentless curiosity and determination of its team and its founder, Giulia Foscari, which also led to the establishment of UNA’s non-profit alter ego, UNLESS.
UNLESS is a non-profit agency for change that brings together interdisciplinary experts to conduct research on extreme environments threatened by the planetary crisis. The pilot project of UNLESS focusses on the Antarctic, a Global Commons we collectively neglect despite its pivotal role in the global ecosystem.
Founded by Giulia Foscari, UNLESS’ collaborative practice engages specialists from the fields of aeronautics, anthropology, architecture, biology, chemistry, climate change, economics, engineering, geoscience, glaciology, history, law, literature, logistics, medicine, physics, political science, science, sociology, technology, and the visual arts. Based in Hamburg, UNLESS operates alongside its alter ego, UNA.
