Furii Studio is led by Diego Martín Sánchez and Noemí Gómez Lobo, both architects trained at the School of Architecture of Madrid (ETSAM) and PhDs from the Tokyo Institute of Technology, where they studied under the Monbukagakusho scholarship granted by Japan’s Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology. From within Yoshiharu Tsukamoto’s laboratory, they collaborated on various projects with Atelier Bow-Wow.
Furii works across multiple scales—from ephemeral pavilions to housing and landscape design—dissolving the boundaries between practice and research, architecture and urbanism. Their projects engage with topics ranging from ecology to gender, uncovering latent dynamics in diverse contexts to imagine alternative realities through design.
They have been awarded in several editions of the EUROPAN international competition for young architects, which led to the development of public space projects in collaboration with Madrid City Council. They have taught at several Japanese universities and were recipients of the Margarita Salas postdoctoral fellowship.
Currently, Noemí is a lecturer in the Landscape Architecture program at Universidad Rey Juan Carlos (URJC), and Diego is a Juan de la Cierva research fellow in the Cultural Landscape Research Group at the Technical University of Madrid (UPM).
