Fernando Romero has found a firm FR-EE. Converging organized and methodical design approaches, FR-EE\u2019s projects translate the contemporary importance of society and culture into built form, achieving ground-breaking results through great technological advancements, through research, and implementation of green infrastructures. The concept of translation embodies his understanding of architecture, using design to change context, conditions and moments into buildings and places with structured identities. Ultimately, the goal of each project is to encounter and render periods of societal, political and economic transformation into three-dimensional form.<\/p>\n

\"Celebrate<\/a><\/p>\n

Today FR-EE is a global architecture and design practice operating at the junction of culture, development, and technology with offices in New York and Mexico City. Collaboration is central to FR-EE\u2019s design research, working closely with clients, policy makers, curators, educators, non-profit entities, developers, engineers, contractors, artists, and anthropologists, to ultimately reach comprehensive and innovative solutions. Beyond practicing design, FR-EE orchestrates initiatives aimed at elevating standards of living and education, particularly in Latin America, through research, sports, and curation.<\/p>\n

The Nest Pod is a\u00a0 pre-crafted home that belongs both to Architecture and Product design worlds. Manufacturing this house will require the same discipline of the construction of a car, a yacht, or an airplane. We live in a\u00a0 world where movement became a very important asset,\u00a0 and this house is designed for a new generation of people that can live simultaneously in different parts of the world.\u00a0 It is an innovative prefabricated house, which is intelligently suited for any environment or location,\u00a0 answering to these urging necessities. Its elliptical shape allows the building to harmoniously relate to any context. The minimized footprint greatly reduces the impact on the build site, by preserving a natural environment or requiring a small site in an urban landscape.<\/p>\n

\"Celebrate<\/a><\/p>\n

Derived from the elliptical forms found in nature,\u00a0 the home responds to it environment with a slight shift of the main horizontal axis, which provides passive shading on its most vulnerable sides. The 95 sqm. dwelling\u2019s interior is split along the North-South axis, creating openings for flow of natural ventilation and interaction through the interior spaces. The structural grid,\u00a0 which radiates from the center,\u00a0 allows the home to be easily manufactured off-site, shipped, and constructed on location.<\/p>\n

\"Celebrate<\/a><\/p>\n

The sleek, smooth exterior dialogues with its gently created interior spaces. One single public area opens to the exterior by its panoramic windows, oriented North and South. A wall compression in the center of the house allows two areas,\u00a0 for dining and living, which defines as well on the sides the space for the two private rooms. Each dwelling is customizable in room number and color,\u00a0 allowing each user to create a one of a\u00a0 kind experiential dwelling.<\/p>\n
