Urban A&O is a boutique design agency based in New York City specializing in parametric modeling, design, and research. We are heavily invested in sustainability and topics around resilience. The theme of architecture as an opportunistic interface for technology and space (simultaneously physical and social) is central to our investigation into future building materials and construction methods. We are fascinated by the ever-increasing intricacy and precision with which we are able to both conceive and realize a project as a result of unprecedented design and fabrication technology. This fascination pervades our research, practice and teaching, and among all three exist multiple and clear affiliations.
