We are an architecture office in Curitiba created through collaboration between architects from UFPR and interested in discussing the problems of architecture and the city. We believe in teamwork and collaborative exercise between clients and professionals as one of the best ways to achieve quality in the design of buildings and open spaces.
We live in Curitiba and we understand that the continuous questioning about the way we use the urban environment can make a project evolve and transform itself, thus generating better solutions for the spaces where we live. Urban planning in Curitiba is more recognized worldwide than its architecture. However, we know that buildings, together with public spaces, shape the city. In other words, good cities are also built for their good buildings. And good buildings are those that establish frank relationships with public spaces.
There are no pre-established certainties in the approach to architecture and it is necessary to collectively build the issues that help in finding solutions for a project. Thus, architecture takes on a dimension that begins with theoretical research, goes through the practical stage of drawing and goes on to execution at the construction site. A human dimension that promotes, values and qualifies the spaces we want to build for our society.
We aim to give special attention to each client, their needs and the specific characteristics of program and location. Only in this way is it possible to create responsible architecture, promoting our lives, while taking into account our impact as human beings on the environment.
