Ensamble Studio
Ensamble Studio is a cross-functional team founded in 2000 and led by architects Antón García-Abril and Débora Mesa. Balancing imagination and reality, art and science, their work innovates typologies, technologies, and methodologies to address issues as diverse as the construction of the landscape or the prefabrication of the house. Their new research and fabrication facility in Madrid, Ensamble Fabrica, has been built to support this endeavour. Antón and Débora are committed to sharing ideas and cultivating synergies between professional and academic worlds through teaching, lecturing, and research: she is also a Critic at Large at Pratt Institute in New York; he is a professor at MIT, where they co-founded the POPlab in 2012.
