Ene+Ene Arhitectură is a partnership between two architects who have been working together since they met in architecture school.
Over time, the professional interests of the practice have diversified — starting initially with interior architecture and visual identity projects, and in recent years expanding to include individual housing, office buildings, and industrial architecture — deliberately avoiding specialization in any single field.
From the beginning, architectural competitions have been an important part of their professional activity, seen both as a form of architectural exploration and as a means of gaining access to new commissions.
Their current architectural concerns centre on understanding and integrating ideas such as identity, place, and tradition.
