Oficina Nómada de Arquitectura (ONA) is an Argentine studio established in 2017 in the province of Mendoza. Specializing in architectural design, project management, coordination, and business management, ONA operates through a collaborative cloud-based virtual work platform. This digital, nomadic framework enables the interaction of various disciplines and trades, allowing team members to carry out their work from anywhere in the world. Additionally, seeking to expand their design reach, the studio operates two parallel initiatives, ARCINECTURA and ONALAB, where they experiment with the intersections between architecture and cinema, and develop new representation and visualization techniques.
To delve into their beginnings, understand their pursuits and purposes, learn about their workflow as digital nomads, and explore their relationship with cinema and visualization, we conducted the following interview with Nicolás Guerra, general coordinator of ONA (Oficina Nómada de Arquitectura):
Belén Maiztegui (BM): We would like to start by talking a bit about the studio's name. Could you tell us what being a Nomadic Architecture Office means to you? What is the workflow like for developing architectural projects at the firm?
