About us
We are an active architecture studio since 2020, founded by three architects from ETSAV-UPC with complementary profiles and common interests.
We work to contribute to the improvement of the environment from the perspective of habitability, comfort, and sustainability—social, economic, and energy-related—through the development of architectural projects, consulting, research, and teaching. We place health at the center of our practice and conduct research in the field of bioconstruction to make it possible.
We understand architecture as a tool that recognizes the needs of people and engages them as active and conscious inhabitants or users. We work horizontally in a co-responsible and participatory model. Together, we approach projects comprehensively, combining sensitivities, technical knowledge, and critical visions, and through our work, we ensure a conscious use of resources and energy.
