PROJECTS
For Ukraine
In March 2022, our team was invited to join an International Team of Consultants to take part in the reconstruction process of the City of Irpin, which had been 70% devastated by the Russian invasion. Following our collaboration, the authorities of the City of Irpin asked us to assist them on the ground in prioritizing the reconstruction process.
Subsequently, we were contacted by two cities, Chernihiv and Kreminna, which had been under constant attack by the Russian army.
Now a days we have worked on 10 reconstruction projects in these three cities.
For Türkiye
As chilean international consultants experts in the development of Innovative Anti-Seismic Architectural and Urban Design, we are working on an intense seminar on professional and technical knowledge of Creative Anti-seismic Architectural and Engineering design under the accumulated Chilean experience for the Chamber of Commerce of Izmir, Türkiye .
On February 6, 2023, Türkiye was devastated by a 7.8 Mw earthquake. This earthquake had more than 1,000 aftershocks, leaving a total of more than 4 million buildings affected and a total of 12,141 buildings collapsed. One of the most affected cities was Izmir. This city has been a seismic epicenter on numerous past occasions and due to its sad record of millions of deaths after a seismic event, today it is in search of a new cultural model of anti-seismic construction. Due to this, the Izmir College of Architects has asked us for advice to guide the reconstruction process and new anti-seismic construction of the city.

The objective of these Workshops is to show the main aspects that have constituted the Chilean anti-seismic experience accumulated in architectural design and how this experience has allowed the gradual construction of the most effective and successful culture of anti-seismic architectural design in the world.
In this sense, share our construction philosophy through the selection of architectural works representative of the new conceptual architectural lines that have a strong impact on anti-seismic design strategies and that demonstrate that their requirements and demands are not an impediment to the development of architectural works of great artistic and creative quality.
This workshop y supported by the Izmir Chamber of Commerce, and we worked collaboratively with prestigious Chilean centers and companies that are leaders in anti-seismic technology and construction worldwide:
ICAUS
At Though Group Chile, we organized the International Contest for Architecture and Urbanism Students (ICAUS). This contest is unique as it goes beyond architecture and urbanism – it also encompasses the strength of the heart, soul, spirit, passion, and human compassion. The aim is to contribute to the rebuilding of Ukraine through the city of Irpin.
City of Irpin, The Future Horizon
International Contest for Arquitecture and Urban Studients
After the outbreak of war in Ukraine, the IRS (Irpin Reconstruction Summit) Foundation, established by the city of Irpin to promote and fund reconstruction projects, commissioned us to organize an international competition for architecture and urbanism students. With the support of the Wrocław University of Science and Technology and the Territorial Intelligence Center of Adolfo Ibáñez University, we launched the competition titled "City of Irpin: Future Horizon."
The objective of this international competition is to develop a creative and innovative conceptual vision for reconstructing a city that has been devastated by the Russian army's invasion. We sought proposals that were free from professional and economic constraints, with the aim of inspiring a new era for Irpin.
Students were encouraged to envision a new city rising from the ashes like a phoenix, deeply rooted in its customs and traditions. The vision was for a city that respects and protects its natural environment, is sustainable, ecological, and aims to be a happy city—a place of life, work, rest, leisure, culture, well-being, and peace.
