LANZA atelier

Isabel Abascal and Alessandro Arienzo founded LANZA atelier in 2015 in Mexico City with the purpose of making meaningful contributions to the beauty of the world. Since then, they have been nominated for the 2016 Ibero-American Architecture Biennial Award and the Mies Crown Hall Award for Emerging Architects, IIT Chicago in 2016 and 2022, and for the Brick Award 2021. The studio is one of the winners of the Young Architects Prize 2017 and the Emerging Voices Award 2023 from the Architectural League of New York which described their multimodal work as one that “expresses an inventiveness, a sensitivity to context, and a compositional refinement that spans scales and forms.” Following LANZA atelier’s first solo show, New Work at SFMOMA in 2018, the atelier’s work has been exhibited at the 12th São Paulo Architecture Biennale (2019), the Lisbon Triennale (2019), the Concéntrico Festival in Spain (2021), and the Latin American Architecture Biennial (BAL) 2023. Additionally, they have presented their work at Syracuse University (2025), Yale University (2024), CU Denver (2024), UTSA (2023), Cal Poly Pomona as part of the VDL House Residency Program (2022), the Constructing Practice Symposium at Columbia University (2019), among others. LANZA atelier’s 2026 projects include a solo exhibition of their furniture designs at AGO Projects in Mexico City as well as the design of the 61st Venice Art Biennale’s Pavilion of the Republic of Kosovo, curated by José Esparza Chong Cuy and presenting a new commission by Brilant Milazimi titled Hard Teeth (Dhëmbë të Fortë).
