  • bureauhub is an idea driven architecture agency based in Milan and Stuttgart, founded by Tobias Hegemann and Chiara Baccarini. The firm focuses on architecture and design, from urban scale projects to interiors, installations and objects. bureauhub conceptual work is founded upon functionalism, programmatic rigor, social acceptance and poetic expression. Researching and testing progressive ideas in a proactive way, enhancing experience of space and relationship between people, we believe architecture can contribute to change standard behaviors and thinking and open up to a new perception of space.

    The studio is cross-disciplinary oriented and in open dialogue with other fields of science, art and architecture, collaborating with multiple experts to generate innovative, environmental friendly architectural solutions.
