Render of an olive-grove public space: paths, green areas and trees within an urban layout

Every project is understood as a system.

Complex projects are not solved by good form alone. They require an understanding of territory, regulation, risk, infrastructure, investment and coordination among agents. The studio's work is to order that complexity and turn it into clear technical decisions.

Studio working process: from sketch to geometry, design and model of a public-space intervention

Designing does not start by drawing.

Designing does not start by drawing, but by understanding the system: inhabitants, territory, risk, regulation, investment, society and execution. A six-step method to structure projects where design, technique and coordination must advance together.
