At cumulolimbo studio we do architecture, interior design and personalised design, research and material experiments with spaces or artefacts from the human scale, recycling and citizen synergy. We design and build domestic and urban spaces that bring happiness and play with emotions and senses. Exteriors, interiors, small objects, scenographies, installations, relationship systems, urban projects and any other experiment that allows us to embrace the world from as many sides as possible.

“Tiny particles of water that float suspended in the atmosphere

and, when they coalesce from a massive vaporous body of droplets known as clouds”

In cumulolimbo studio we do architecture, interiors and designs that bring happiness and enhance emotions.

We also investigate and experiment with materials, spaces or artifacts from a human scale, a recycling and eco-efficient perspective and with citizen synergies. We design and build furniture, scenographies, installations, urban projects and anything else as long as it allow us to embrace the world from diverse points of view.

Like the structure of a cloud, our team works within a variable and distributed network. As small “particles of water”, united we form a whole. We love working hand to hand with craftsmen, artists, curators, promoters etc, creating relationships and projects with people, institutions, and companies all over the word.
