PROXIIMA

PROXIIMA is an interdisciplinary design practice led by Alberto de Salvatierra. The office’s work seeks to engage civilization vis-à-vis cities—and related, playful, imaginaries—to re-image and re-frame disciplinary attitudes of urban systems and flows at the intersection of architecture, landscape architecture and urban design tempered by ecology and sustainability. Additionally interested in an intellectual project, where designing metropoli from mythology or engendering cities from sediment proffers rich speculative realities for a metamodern world, PROXIIMA—taken from the Spanish word for “next” or “forward”—looks to the future with both eyes.
