a10 is an architecture and design studio, its commitment to the exploration of new architectural models and programs has been translated in a "open code practice" that learns from nature and its billions of new shapes generated every second in the shape of waves, flights of birds, sounds of wind thru leaves, etc., to generate specific flexible responses to particular situations in a multiscalar panorama of projects. We love unique and singular things, as admirors of nature a10studio realize mother nature is the best designer ever,
and as such we learn from it.
The environmental aspect of our practice is always present in our work and thinking, realizing that the best solutions, materials and processes in design are always attached to an environmental conscious as also innovative thinking. Mariano Arias-Diez leads the design teams at a10studio and collaborates directly with clients. His focus on materials, technology and sustainability is supported through a model of working that
combines practice, teaching and research.
