MAIO
(Spain)
MAIO, a Barcelona-based architectural office led by Alfredo Lérida, Anna Puigjaner, Guillermo López, and Maria Charneco, develops spatial systems to challenge biased structures.
Working alongside MAIO, Pol Esteve Castelló brings their research on non-conforming bodies, non-canonical histories, and collective design—investigating the intersections of body, space, and technology—into the project’s design.Their work connects with Care., a research and educational initiative launched in 2023 at ETH Zürich’s Department of Architecture, which explores non-conforming bodies and promotes new forms of interdependent care through design and theory.
