Design Explorations. Modifying Matter.

(EN) dEMM is an architecture studio.
We believe that emerging technologies and evolving ways of living, together with global economic dynamics, call for new and unexplored architectural and urban approaches.
Our work is informed by multicultural exchange and by a rigorous, comprehensive reading of contemporary life and its ongoing transformation.

(PT) A dEMM é um atelier de arquitectura.
Acreditamos que as novas tecnologias e a evolução dos modos de vida, em articulação com os fluxos económicos globais, exigem abordagens arquitectónicas e urbanas renovadas.
A nossa arquitectura é informada pela troca multicultural e por uma leitura crítica e abrangente da transformação da vida contemporânea.
