Our History

It is therefore inspired by the Enlightenment movement of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, a time of intellectual renaissance and expansion. As Immanuel Kant summed it up: “Sapere aude” (Dare to be wise).

It was founded in 2020 by Architects Eduardo Quintero and Annamaria Zampogna, with the support of the New York Architecture Biennial (NYCAB), with the vision of becoming a leading reference in all fields, from architecture to medicine or from geopolitics to cinema, being a constant source to expand your knowledge on the most relevant topics of today, connecting with institutions and professionals globally.
