Archibloom is a multi-disciplinary collective based in Italy between Rome and Lecce, that works across architecture, urban planning and design. Assembled in 2018 to undertake a competition in Bolivia, Archibloom has since delivered some award-winning projects at a variety of scales. A democratic and co-operative approach characterizes every built, social and research-based work, enabling us to both make things and making things happen. A fundamental theme that has always accompanied us is therefore the idea of living, meant as "being in the world". We consider living as the "way" in which the human being interfaces with the territory, its landscapes, its resources, its natural cycles, its ecosystems, its relationships. Our practices are based on research, hybridization, multidisciplinarity and coparticipation in the project. Among us there are those who have done or are doing a PhD, who are doing a II level master, not only in architecture but also in visual studies, landscape and geography, in philosophy and design, in performing arts and community spaces. As well as others of us have had important design experiences abroad, Switzerland, England, PerĂ¹. This allowed us to broaden our perspective and make ourselves contaminated by the different disciplines and the different relationships we encountered.
