0001 is a collective of architects, technologists, artists, and designers working primarily in the field of housing. We met on the dance floor, our late night conversations inflected by syncopated basslines and bitcrushed beats. Our parents had fled different wars, waged for different reasons in different places—and we saw in each other the same gratitude for the sacrifices they’d made, the same determination to invent our own world anew, and the same appreciation for the hardships that doing that would involve.
0001 Generative Design System
0001 GDS is a complete building design system, merging generative AI technologies with the construction processes and supply chain needed to reconfigure housing around the world using universally available components. We’re using it to build a globally-distributed peer-to-peer housing collective.

They called it Disurbanism.
