via Vignatagliata 33a, Ferrara, Italy
HPO took shape in 2017 around the Architecture Faculty of Ferrara, as a reaction to a condition of boredom after days of Brazilian samba and Swiss precision. HPO is an experiment aiming to cross the line between an architectural practice and a cleaning agency and it is testing and demonstrating the apparently not obvious outcomes of the architect profession.

BE WATER


A new attitude for architecture collectives

BE WATER


A new attitude for architecture collectives
How new forms of mass protest can shape an attitude for future architecture collectives.
File under
Type of project
  • New alliances

We belong to a generation that is not subject to the internet libertarian rhetoric but that simply considers it an essential and incredible extension of our physical reality.
This is the teaching that comes from the analogy in which we are deepening our study. An analogy that brings together aspects of reality apparently far from architecture in order to discover new forms through which architects can review their relationship with reality.
Our method and internal structure as an architecture collective is the first outcome: we think about ourself as an experiment in which virtual and physical constantly overlap, a group which hierarchy is based on a fluid verticality ruled by each project, a heterogeneous collective brought together as a reaction to the imposed limits of the circumstances.
This research leads to a series of projects that translate these new forms into architectural ones. "Laserhut" and “Default” are two examples of this approach, open to future and new outcomes.
