Expo City Dubai is more than a destination—it’s a vision for the future of Dubai. Our vision for the masterplan for Expo City Dubai transforms the legacy of Expo 2020 into a blueprint for innovation-driven, people-centric urban living. Retaining over 80% of the original site’s infrastructure, the design introduces five new districts that balance vibrant community spaces with environmental stewardship. From the high-density Expo Downtown to the serene Expo Hills, each district is designed to foster wellbeing, sustainability, and connectivity.

We've concluded this year’s IE School of Architecture and Design x UNStudio Amsterdam Lab, part of the Master in Architecture program. Over the past three weeks, students immersed themselves in Amsterdam, exploring how, where, and why we work, while gaining insights into city-making innovations in the Netherlands. The final day brought together an inspiring group of minds, including Thesis Chair and our founder and principal architect Ben van Berkel, alongside our colleagues Dana Behrman and Mónica Palfy Alonso-Alegre, and IE School of Architecture and Design professors Marcela Aragüez, Fernando Pino, and Enrique Jerez Abajo. Together, we delved into the students’ projects, sparking discussions on the future of work and its impact on urban environments. We’re excited to see how these ideas evolve in the coming months and continue to shape the conversation around the future of work and urban design. Thank you everyone who joined - and David Goodman for the great photos!

Happy Lunar New Year! In the year of the snake, we will continue seeking out limitless inspirations. We wish you all a creative 2025. #lunarnewyear #yearofthesnake #2025 #unstudio

We’re ecstatic to announce that our design 18T Mansion in Chongqing, China, has been realised! This new development not only rejuvenates the Shibati area on the Yuzhong peninsula - where the facilities were no longer meeting modern needs - to achieve high-quality livability, but also preserves the heritage of the ‘Urban Well’ by integrating it into the design of the residential towers and podiums.

Our design for Hannamdong-4 Residences was selected as the winning competition design by a jury in Seoul! This project is more than just a place to live; it is a special residential experience offering breathtaking views and easy access to both natural and urban amenities. By reconnecting residents with their surroundings, it fosters a sense of peace and balance, enhancing the quality of life for all who call it home.

Our design proposal for Hannamdong-4 Residences enhances both individual well-being and community connectivity by drawing inspiration from the distinct characteristics of the locality. This holistic approach prioritises well-being and sustainability, creating an environment where the city and nature coexist in harmony. Central to the design is the ‘Biophilic Nexus’ which not only reconnect the mountain to the river but also bridges users to the city’s past, drawing from elements that symbolise local heritage.

Our proposal for the redevelopment of the Sewoon District in the historic heart of Seoul envisions a transformation of the area to honor its cultural, historical and commercial legacy, but also propel the area towards a sustainable future. To shape Seoul’s skyline with cultural and historical elegance, we designed the massing of the five towers to reflect the silhouette of the iconic Bukhansan Mountain which forms the natural background. The lower levels of the towers are designed to foster an open, public environment, with wide spaces between buildings providing visual and spatial flexibility. Passive design principles are incorporated throughout the project to reduce energy loads, increase biodiversity and enhance well-being and quality of life. The design was carried out in collaboration with DA Group Urban Design & Architect in Seoul, with Atelier LOOS van VLIET and Field Operations as advisors for landscape design.
