ZERZA strives for a sustainable future, digital innovation, and urban resilience.

Technologies of the realm present an opportunity to rethink the experience of space, society, and culture. They give us the possibility to engage with the city of the future shaping the built environment of the 21st century.

Cities designed with integrated smart technologies and sustainable energy sources can improve the lives of all those who inhabit them. Given the impact of these technologies, we seek to investigate the connections between data, infrastructure, and the public realm.

Today there is greater emphasis on lifestyle as architecture indulges in idiosyncratic shape-making and aimless aesthetic effects. Twenty-first century architecture can find new purpose by adopting a coherent vision for the future, concerned with modes of existence and innovation evolving out of the digital industrial revolution. Virtual space can function as a mediating layer between the real and the yet to come, between cultural identities and a truly global technological existence.
