The A-Factor

We are architects, thinkers, engineers and designers.

We join forces with experts from diverse fields, to deliver sustainable projects for forward thinking clients.

Our culture pushes us to explore the concept of “factual sustainability” that – as Hans Rosling says in Factfulness – allows us to welcome complexity, warying of slogans and oversimplification of key sustainable-design concepts.
Collecting, processing and transforming contextual data into integrated architectural ideas means to design on a case-by-case basis, tackling environmental, economical and social challenges towards a more factual paradigm of circularity and a renewed harmony with nature.
We do this conscious of our responsibility – as architects – to imagine and shape flexible cities, buildings and spaces able to house a thriving future and its possible evolutions.

On March 14th 2024 a-fact had the pleasure of teaching “A world of modules” at SOUx Milano, a cutting-edge architecture and design school for kids aged 6 to 9 years old with diverse backgrounds.

 

The kids had the opportunity to experiment with us the importance of proportions, working hands-on their personal vision of cities, buildings, apartments and rooms, giving it a unique creative touch, pure and free from day-to-day constraints.

 

Special thanks to SOUx wonderful staff and, in particular, to Caterina Malinconico for inviting us. It’s been such a wonderful and powerful experience to get inspired by kid’s creativity and we can’t wait to come back!
