a collective studio is a practice with an architectural background that focuses on projects at the intersection of architecture, art, design and communication. The projects often have a theoretical approach and explore interdisciplinary collaboration at the numerous interfaces that architecture has with other fields, be it through texts, designs or workshops. The name a collective studio stands for interdisciplinary collaboration and down-to-earthness and aims to convey that the architecture industry is not about individuals standing out, but about the results of joint collaboration, which is part of any process.
