About Nuna Studio
NUNA studio is a nature-tech start-up responding to the lack of biodiversity in today’s urban environments.
We see an opportunity for urban buildings to be more than passive “enclosures” for human life but ecologically “activated” surfaces, contributing to healthier and more biodiverse cities.
In partnership with world leading research institutions, property developers, impact accelerators and manufacturing companies, we are developing the next generation of nature-based architectural products.
Our first product, the NUNA lattice, is an innovative Living Wall system made of low carbon bio-materials, with a proprietary geometry that promotes healthy plant growth and increased water retention.
In 2024 we are aiming to complete 3 revolutionary pilot projects.
