Architecture, shaped
by curiosity.
Nu-Metis is an independent architecture and design practice led by Alessandro Cascone.
We connect spatial ambition with technical development, shaping buildings, interiors and façades around their context, programme and people.
What we do
Architectural thinking, from the first idea to the detail.
Architecture
& design
Buildings, interiors and masterplans shaped around place, programme and people.
Computational design
& façade systems
Geometry, panelisation and technical detailing that connect architectural ideas with fabrication.
Technical design
& delivery
Coordinating materials, interfaces and details with consultants and project teams, from concept through construction.
Nu–mêtis
Nu
A contemporary outlook on architecture, shaped by new ideas, tools and ways of making.
Mêtis
In Homer’s Odyssey, mêtis is the resourceful intelligence associated with Odysseus: the ability to adapt, devise and act wisely in complex situations.
From concept to coordinated design.
Nu-Metis brings architecture, interiors and façades together with computational and technical design, carrying each project from spatial concept towards resolved detail.
Founded in 2023 by architect Alessandro Cascone, the studio builds on his experience at Zaha Hadid Architects, AL_A, Studio Fuksas and AECOM.
