*A-A Collective is an international collective of architects who work together across nations, nationalities and norms - founded by Srdjan Zlokapa, Furio Montoli, Zygmunt Borawski and Martin Marker.
A-A Collective is an interdisciplinary practice focused on architecture with members in Basel, Copenhagen, Warsaw and Milano. The collective came together in Switzerland and operates from 3 different countries by putting together local backgrounds and knowledges to face the contemporary global complexity.
The collective is a group of professionals who operate in all fields of architecture: Practice, Research, Writing and Teaching. They find an interdisciplinary approach fundamental to push the boundaries of the practice.
