DESIGN WITH SENSITIVITY:WE CREATE BUILDINGS THAT LEAVE A LASTING IMPRESSION

Because we know how much built spaces affect our feelings and behaviors, we care about people’s perceptions. We are clear that we design for people so it’s our main duty to produce excellent quality and memorable architecture.

WHY AN INTEGRATED APPROACH

Architecture and urban projects are never conceived under only one discipline; their success is determined by the integration of multiple aspects. Space, ecology, economy and society are the four pillars of the system we use to conceptualize and develop them. The use of an urban, neighborhood and building scales is an additional contribution for better integratating projects into the surroundings and city where they are located.

OUR PRINCIPLES

We work consistently and care about delivery times.

We fit the building law, our client requirements and the concerns of the city.

We provide high space optimization and good quality living spaces.

We prioritize respectful and diplomatic relationships with the city officials, and or stakeholders.

We care about the use of resources, materials, and our footprint in the environment.

Therefore we give clients advise on a more sustainable road path to achieve their project goals.

FROM INTEGRATED TO UNIQUE

Our driver is to co-create solutions together with our clients, considering their interests, aspirations, and budget, and combining them with our knowledge and expertise. We are interested in providing a personalized service that displays a unique result that stands out.

SUSTAINABILITY AND REGENERATION

Part of our contribution to a world that is affected by- and aware of climate change, is conceiving new and transforming existent buildings in accordance with their surroundings. We aim at taking care of our carbon footprint, and the resources, materials and processes we make use of. We would like to concieve projects that do not harm our environment.

But that is not all. We aim to conceive sustainable architecture and urban planning, but also to go beyond, towards regeneration. With sustainability, we target neutrality; with regenerative practices we add value. We envision our projects as a channel to bring an added value to the context where they develop, which may positively impact biodiversity, air quality, comfort, among others. 

Our interest is to bring projects to life that are inmersed in more livable neighborhoods of more sustainable and livable cities.

ECONOMY

Achieving affordable and quality design is one of our main goals regardless of the final use of the projects we design. For this reason, we care about the importance of economic thinking for project conception and project development. From an early conceptional project phase, we calculate and communicate clearly about expected and approximate costs to our clients in order to have a transparent flow of work and to achieve the project goals together.

Approach


Competence

competence

Integrated Urban &
Architectural Design

We care about the relationship of buildings with their surroundings, and take a look at the most relevant aspects of their design process through an holistic approach. In order to design sustainable projects, we connect Space (What), Environment (Where), Economy (How) and Society (For Who).

Identity

Under the philosophy of conceiving unique projects, we care about identity and the image that each of them reflects.

Sustainability
& Regeneration

Architecture and design are meaningless if sustainability is not a part of their conception. The use of an integrated approach, the conceptualization of measures for climate protection, and the combination of research and advice for a less carbon-centered choice of materials and resources are our main channels to implement it in our practices.

Team

We are a team shaped by individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds, each with unique interests and life experiences. What brought us together is our shared passion for producing high-quality architecture and urban planning with a holistic approach, both locally and internationally. Considering your and the needs of the contexts we work on, we carefully integrate functionality, aesthetics,and sustainability into our projects. We are aware of the climate crisis we currently face and how important it is to take action through our work. The impact our work can have on creating more livable environments is quite significant, therefore we should answer that call.

In this sense, we look forward to developing projects that contribute to building a better world.
