SVESMI is a Dutch office for architecture, urbanism and education based in Rotterdam, The Netherlands
SVESMI is a Dutch-Russian office for architecture, urbanism and cultural programming based in Rotterdam, The Netherlands and in Moscow,Russia. Architect Alexander Sverdlov and author/researcher Anastassia Smirnova founded it in 2007 with the sole purpose of producing intelligent, integrated, and transformative designs. In 2010, the Dutch architect David Koezen joined the team to contribute to the development of the projects in the Netherlands. SVESMI constantly questions the role and capacity of the architectural profession in the era of multiple innovations and high velocity. We believe that today an architect should be very proactive, see far ahead of his or her time to anticipate future needs and to purposefully shape how we are going to live tomorrow. All SVESMI projects - whether a scheme for the reinvention of a municipal library system or an educational program for an experimental school,
a social housing project in the city center or a public building in a small town - are based on a holistic, multidisciplinary thinking and a systematic
approach. We love systems and always work with complex connections, ties and relationships. In its everyday practice SVESMI deals with very diverse set of briefs, ranging from building design and urban planning, to research projects and curatorial programs. Our collective approaches every job as a unique challenge and an exciting opportunity to develop the most dynamic and original concepts that are not only effective today, but will evolve and improve themselves over time. SVESMI team works for municipalities, educational institutions and private entities, helping its clients to formulate tasks effectively, while responding with drive and skills that only a flexible team of free-minded professionals can offer today.

SVESMI publication Visionaries. Notes on Systemic Change is ready for pre-order.
The project Visionaries explores both the process and agents of visionary design production in the age of the next grand narrative of climate disaster. It focuses on the visions by architects, designers, and engineers, who want to change the world systemically.
The authors of this notebook aspire to impose alternative order of things and create not just beautiful physical structures, but ambitious, and, at times, controversial prescriptions for responsible actions.
In this way or another, all of them are interested in new models and prototypes that are supposed to be interpreted—not simply replicated!—in multiple productive ways, also by future generations..
