Founded in 2022 by architects Nayla Cefarelli and Sofía Lorenzo, XAARCHIVE STUDIO is a Milan and Barcelona–based practice operating at the intersection of architecture, technology, and contemporary culture. The studio approaches space as a living system, where parametric design, material experimentation, and human experience converge to turn abstract concepts into immersive realities.

XAARCHIVE’s methodology is rooted in the curation of experience. Whether through residential interiors, high-impact retail, or set design, the studio translates visions into singular spatial identities. By blending aesthetic with precision-driven technical execution, the practice bridges the gap between digital innovation and physical presence.

Some of their main clients include Bottega Veneta, Venice Biennale, Nike, Oakely, Nude Project, El Santo, and Meller.

The studio has been selected as sole author for the 19th Venice Architecture Biennale (2025) and again in 2026 as set designer for the 61st Venice Art Biennale with a special project exclusively funded by Bottega Veneta. Other international cultural institutions they have exhibited and collaborated with include the United Nations, FAO (Rome), Fondazione Pier Luigi Nervi, Dutch Design Week Eindhoven, IAAC Barcelona, Fondazione Arnaldo Pomodoro, Spazio Serra, REA! Art Fair Milano, Centro Arti Visive Pesaro, CCCB Barcelona, Next Nature Network, Evoluon Design Museum (NL), IUAV Venice, Mare Karina, and the Argentine Consulate in Milan.
