Founded in Zurich in 2024, Atelier Sofia Ferrari operates at the intersection of architecture, renovation, and applied arts. The practice distinguishes itself through a sensitive approach to materiality, landscape, and historical narrative, aiming to uncover the inherent potential of every site. Sofia Ferrari honed her architectural language at EPFL and ETH Zurich, graduating in 2020 under Momoyo Kaijima. Her background is marked by an exploration of shifting scales, ranging from the landscape architecture of Vogt to the domestic precision of Atelier Bow-Wow in Tokyo. During her time in Japan, she cultivated a distinct craft in ceramics which now deeply influences her attention to detail and handwork. Prior to establishing her independent practice, she solidified her technical expertise at Schmidlin Architekten by focusing on rural renovations and timber construction in the Grisons. She currently balances her work as a builder with academic research as an assistant at the Chair of Architectural Behaviorology at ETH Zurich.
