Anantu.Studio is a multidisciplinary architectural and strategic consulting practice based in Barcelona. The name is derived from the Sanskrit Ananta (infinite/limitless) and Vastu (the science of dwelling in harmony with natural forces). This duality defines our approach: we bridge the limitless potential of a conceptual vision with the technical rigor required to ground it in the physical world.

​

Founded in 2026 by Alicia Hernanz, the studio draws on over a decade of experience at the highest levels of international architecture. Alicia’s professional journey includes pivotal roles at Renzo Piano Building Workshop (RPBW), Ian Ritchie Architects, and Barozzi Veiga.

​

Most recently, she spent four years working hands-on with the Art Institute of Chicago on a transformative campus makeover, delivering three major projects including new galleries and a state-of-the-art Conservation and Research Center. This experience in managing complex, high-stakes institutional milestones is the foundation of the studio’s expertise.

​

Anantu.Studio operates internationally, serving cultural institutions as a strategic partner, while maintaining a dedicated design focus on public, cultural, and residential projects in Barcelona and the Balearic Islands.
