Office

ABOUT

UNA is an international architecture studio driven by a strong cultural agenda. Operating at multiple scales with projects ranging from contemporary art foundations to exhibition designs, private houses, and publications, UNA’s work is informed by critical research. Based in Venice, where the office built its foundation on the legacy of FWR Associati, UNA introduces radical thinking within historically charged sites. UNA is fuelled by the relentless curiosity and determination of its team and its founder, Giulia Foscari, which also led to the establishment of UNA’s non-profit alter ego, UNLESS.

GIULIA FOSCARI

Giulia Foscari is an architect, curator and activist who has been practising in Europe, Asia and the Americas. She is the founder of UNLESS and of its alter ego UNA, an architecture studio focussed on cultural projects with strong emphasis on preservation. Recent projects by UNA include the Anish Kapoor Art Foundation and a temporary Pavilion for LAS Art Foundation. Alongside directing UNA / UNLESS, Giulia Foscari is a member of the International Council of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), and a board member of the Fondazione Musei Civici di Venezia (MuVE) and of the Antarctic Southern Ocean Coalition (ASOC). Giulia worked extensively with Rem Koolhaas (OMA/AMO) and collaborated with Zaha Hadid. She taught at Hong Kong University and the Architectural Association in London.
