Services

Architecture

Houses, second homes, offices, hospitality and industrial and commercial buildings, from the first idea to the finished building.

• Concept proposals

  Ideas, narrative and early massing to test the potential of a brief, a site or a competition.

• Schematic design

  Site capacity, zoning, brief and massing with a preliminary budget, so you can decide before investing.

• New buildings

  Full design of houses and second homes: drawings, consultants, permits and construction details.

• Extensions

  More space without losing what already works: structure, zoning and an addition that never reads as a patch.

• Renovations

  Re-planning, changes of use and complete renovation of houses and apartments.

• Office design

  Efficient workplaces with character: layout, acoustics, lighting and furniture.

• Industrial & commercial buildings

  Warehouses, industrial sheds, logistics centres and retail: site capacity, efficient structure and technical coordination, with experience on large industrial projects in the United States.

• Hospitality & tourism

  Boutique hotels, lodges, cabins, glamping and restaurants, with experience in luxury hospitality in Mexico (Four Seasons and Six Senses, in collaboration).

Interiors & landscape

The design carries on inside and out: from ceiling to furniture, from wall to garden.

• Interior architecture

  Reshaping interior spaces: walls, ceilings, lighting, finishes and built-in joinery.

• Interior design & bespoke furniture

  Materials, colour, objects and furniture designed and made for each space.

• Landscape design

  Courtyards, terraces, pools and gardens with planting suited to the site and climate.

Real estate development

Investment decisions backed by architecture: what fits, what it costs and how it sells.

• Site capacity & feasibility studies

  Zoning, buildable area, number of units or lots and a preliminary return before buying or developing a site.

• Real estate product design

  Brief, unit mix, areas and finish standard designed for the project’s target market.

• Technical due diligence

  Review of zoning, boundaries, permits and building condition before buying a property or a site.

• Visualisation & sales material

  Renders, walkthroughs and 3D models for investors and pre-sales.

• Project management & owner’s representation

  Coordinating the team, schedule and costs on behalf of the investor or client.

Land & urban development

Large sites organised before anything is built: lots, roads and boundaries resolved precisely.

• Masterplans

  Site planning: lots, shared areas, paths, landscape and development phases.

• Urbanisation & subdivision

  Design of urban developments and subdivisions: lots, access, utilities and feasibility.

• Roads & road-layout optimisation

  Road layouts computed on the real topography: gradients, earthworks and cost.

• Legal boundary reconstruction with georeferencing

  Georeferenced survey and boundary drawings to legally support the limits of a property.

Technical delivery & construction

From model to site: clear costs, permits in order and well-controlled construction.

• BIM coordination

  Revit models, consultant coordination and clash detection before construction. Experience on large-scale projects in the United States.

• Quantity take-off & cost estimates

  Quantities taken from the model and itemised budgets to compare bids and control costs.

• Municipal permits

  Building permits, subdivision, lot mergers and final approval with the municipal works department.

• Site inspection (ITO)

  Quality, schedule and progress control on behalf of the client.

• Construction supervision

  On-site follow-up so the building stays true to the design, resolving queries and details.

Computational design & sustainability

Digital tools and climate at the service of form, efficiency and comfort.

• Parametric design & digital fabrication

  Rhino and Grasshopper for facades, screens, structures and parts optimised for CNC cutting and prefabrication.

• Energy efficiency & bioclimatic design

  Orientation, solar access, insulation, natural ventilation and local materials, assessed from the earliest stages.
