Hume Architecture, based in Brooklyn New York, was founded by Nate Hume. The practice seeks to create unexpected moments between material and people, forming dynamic relationships that provoke new attitudes toward the environment. Ones that are not only about preserving or conserving but also fostering new ecologies through experimentation with building materials and their perception. The work places an emphasis on creating chromatically and texturally saturated spaces which question traditional notions of the artificial and the natural.
