About:

Hi, I’m Emmi.

 

I work where architecture, art, and movement meet.

I'm endlessly curious about materials, bodies, and spaces — how we shape them, and how they shape us.

​

For over 15 years, I’ve designed buildings, exhibitions, and research projects around the world — from Helsinki to Hong Kong, Venice to Dikemark. I’ve co-founded architecture offices, exhibited in major biennales, and shared my work through lectures and workshops across Japan, Mexico, China, Russia, Norway, Finland, and the U.S.

​

Now, through EMMI Ventures, I’m creating something new. Here, I explore architecture as living choreography, material as a keeper of memory, and making as a way of imagining the world differently.

​​

​

I work across glass, wood, technology, and the body — crafting processes that are slow, embodied, and materially grounded, while opening portals into speculative futures.

Situated where architecture, sculpture, and sensory research meet, my practice moves from the intimate materiality of glass to the spatial choreographies of cities.

​

Rooted in craft traditions and the evolving languages of digital making, I explore how embodied intelligence and the agency of materials can open new ways of living, sensing, and belonging.

If you believe that architecture can be danced, that materials remember, and that futures can be shaped with care — then welcome.
You’ve found my latest venture. Let’s play together!
