TU Delft maintains close links with (inter)national industry, a strategic alliance contributing to the relevance of its academic programmes and career prospects for its graduates. Society is our continuous incentive for research. We carry out research to find solutions for society’s present and future demands. Fundamental research is part of this, because we aim to find solutions for tomorrow’s problems. Health, energy, environment and infrastructures & mobility are today's major social issues. That's why TU Delft pays extra attention to developing solutions in these four domains.

We work at all scales and in all sectors. We create transformative cultural, corporate, residential and other spaces that work in synchronicity with their surroundings. Zaha Hadid, founding partner of Zaha Hadid Architects, was awarded the Pritzker Architecture Prize in 2004 and is internationally known for her built, theoretical and academic work. Each of her dynamic and innovative projects builds on over thirty years of revolutionary experimentation and research in the interrelated fields of urbanism, architecture and design. Working with senior office partner Patrik Schumacher, Hadid’s interest is in the rigorous interface between architecture, landscape, and geology as the practice integrates natural topography and human-made systems that lead to experimentation with cutting-edge technologies. Such a process often results in unexpected and dynamic architectural forms.

We’ve always thrived on thinking differently — because that’s where true progress lies. We look beyond architecture. We explore limitless ideas. We discover unseen potential. We are UNS, we see what others miss. The best ideas are born from collaboration. With seven offices spanning four continents, our dedicated teams are not afraid to challenge themselves, our clients and our collaborators to go beyond the predictable. In this quest, we uncover hidden opportunities to transform the built environment all around the world. Our studio is fueled by a passion to question and provoke. Our melting pot of expertises leads to interwoven design and consultancy solutions that deliver beyond the brief. Join us on a journey where perspective is everything and where the usual angles are just the starting point.
