About
We are young ambitious practice based in Bolzano focused on innovative and authentic architecture.
Quality can be achieved only by intense studies, conceptual and contextual thinking and search for individuality in both - urban or rural typographies. Buildings identity is created as a synergy of function, site particularities, traditions, and craftsmanship. Light and materials are implemented in a technically refined way, giving the spaces authenticity and timeless atmosphere. We understand that profound technical knowledge and a lot of attention in all project phases is a prerequisite of success - in terms of quality but as well as schedule and budget expectations of our Clients.
