We are Foam & Fabric Architects

We build impossible structures using advanced materials and innovative construction methods

Using patented construction methods, we design and manufacture ecological houses, villas and apartment buildings that bring art back to architecture. All our dwellings are rated Leed Platinum rated, smart and Ready for Nordic climate. Our construction methods and materials require 50% less time and cost to build than conventional building methods. They are 30% more efficient, produce 60% less greenhouse gasses and cost 20% less on maintenance fees. Furthermore, our dwellings are transportable, can be constructed over any terrain or even floated on water and leave a minimal footprint when they are removed.

Our Unique values

  • Iconic Designs
  • Innovative Construction Methods
  • Green and Recyclable

Construction Industry Facts

The construction industry is one of the most polluting and wasteful industries in the world today. It is responsible for ecological destruction on a massive scale to meet the insatiable appetite for ugly concrete boxes. Add to this the cost of demolishing and recycling those buildings. Wooden housing is not much better. Although forests can be sustainably managed, a tree takes on average 10 years to grow. The cost, time, resources and inefficiencies of our current construction methods needs to change. We need to find new materials and methods for building shelters or we will lose the only shelter we have in the vast universe.

Our advantages

We provide our materials and construction technologies to other contractors, or implement complete projects. Our dwellings and components are manufactured off-site and then transported for more convenience. Our homes villas and shelters will be released in collections with specific themes just like the fashion industry. We provide solutions that cost 50% less time and resources, are energy efficient and require minimal maintenance

About Architecture

Zaha Hadid

"I don't think that architecture is only about shelter, is only about a very simple enclosure, it should be able to excite you, to calm you, to make you think"

Quote

Buckminster Fuller

"You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete"

Quote

Walter Gropius

"Together let us desire, conceive, and create the new structure of the future, which will embrace architecture and sculpture and painting in one unity and which will one day rise toward Heaven from the hands of a million workers like the crystal symbol of a new faith"

Louis Kahn

"Architecture is the thoughtful making of space"

Our first Project

Our first Project For our first project, we want to create showcase dwelling that presents our technologies to the public. This project will allow us to test our experimental materials and construction methods. In addition it will allow us to evaluate the impact of our recycling methods and the efficiency of our buildings. The build process will give us time to test our technology and learn from the experience.

We are building a team with the required skills in many areas. Our main source of talent will be university students. We want to partner with Universities, construction, material and chemical companies in Finland and the Nordics for support. we will also need municipal support and sponsorship to acquire a land lease and regulation support.

looking for Partners

Building the future requires more than ideas. We need your help to make it happen. We are mainly looking for Universities and students, but also municipalities, architecture and construction companies. We are looking for fresh and unspoiled minds. People who still think that anything is possible before they catch the mainstream industry bug. We want people who want to live and think outside boxes "literally".
