One of our main lines of work: our success in retail design for banking and financial services lies in the efficient and solution oriented translation of client requirements and the combination of standards and creative solutions in the shortest period and within budget.

Our most important line of work: our success is attributable to the practice of creating facilities that balance flexible space planning with special design requirements. Thus we can help our corporate clients to achieve better workplaces, through planning and design that improve their people's productivity and morale and make it possible to face competition worldwide in any type of industry.

Design of cultural facilities is a journey through the visitor’s experience: no matter the location, culture or language, enlightening the visitor is a requirement. When designing libraries, museums, cultural centers, aquariums, churches and other worship facilities we work across borders and cultures.

We believe education and research are one of the pillars to form a successful society. Our contribution by designing the appropriate environment by planning and designing learning environments, from a small kindergarten to a more complex academic campus with modern classroom and laboratory buildings, or specialized research environments, labs, auditoriums, learning resource centers.

Our clients have specific needs for ephemeral architecture and design related to events and marketing that are crucial to promote their image and boost their growth goals. The challenge is to produce the right effect and impact in a short time. Our designers can help offering solutions for each specific situation or requirement to make sure the objectives are met.

Governmental facility design is a journey in local culture, to meet both user’s and officials’ requirements. The design is a physical expression of governmental policies, values, and agendas, and is often more complex because the number of actors involved in the process is bigger than in the private sector.

Health care is another pillar of a successful society. These facilities have very specific requirements needing to comply with specific norms and regulations. From hospital lobby renovation, ambulatory care, outpatient services, clinics and surgical facilities to more complex medical centers and labs, it is always a challenge to combine the best technical solutions with the best design.

Home design is the utmost expression of individuality and lifestyle: a reflection of the client’s image. Family housing, urban dwelling, penthouse, beach house, farm house, country home, loft, kitchenette, senior living: each present unique opportunities to accommodate evolving lifestyles. Design here is practical and reflects the client’s style and aspirations, therefore being unique in many forms: minimalist, modern, classical, feng shui, zen, romantic, futuristic, trendy, country, urban, oriental, etc.

Hospitality design is one of the keys to a successful operation: as business and leisure travel become more intertwined, hotels must accommodate the overlapping desires and needs of each traveler. The challenge is in combining the owner and/or operator’s image and standards with the nature of the local surroundings and culture to emphasize the "guest experience" and produce sustainable facilities, be it a big resort, a hotel, a spa or “pousadas” and boutique hotels. This also applies to restaurants, bars, and other retail activities involving food and beverage that interface leisure, entertainment and hospitality.

The key to successful design for industrial and operational uses is understanding, both the business and the client. Our success in this area lies in our functional approach to design and multidisciplinary teamwork, both crucial in this area. We also deeply involve our clients in the process. Specialists in each area ensure that any specific requirements, regulations, norms and standards are met.

We strongly believe that a good design of public space and the built environment as well as a correct management of the natural environment will result in places that people care about, therefore places that endure. The eye for detail makes the results rich and attractive for its users, being able to stimulate the senses and increasing life quality in the built environment: parks, squares, streets, sidewalks, promenades, decks, waterfronts, etc.

The success in retail design lies in the right combination between creating the ultimate experience in excitement within the appropriate commercial budget. To design exciting environments there is no set solution, but creativity and cutting-edge ideas, as well as cross cultural experiences and design innovation bring interesting results for shopping center, store, boutique, leisure, and entertainment design.

Sports and events facility design has the objective to gather people as actors or spectators in exceptional gathering places. They are a combination of a technical solution with entertainment: stadiums, arenas, convention centers and amphitheaters are a theatre with a big stage and a big audience. Sports centers, gyms, training facilities require special attention because the number of actors is bigger, thus the supporting infrastructure has a mix of retail, hospitality and healthcare facilities.

Special facilities and infrastructure are required for air, rail, water, and ground surface transportation. We believe our transportation projects must satisfy the functional role as movers of people, preserve the community quality of life, and stimulate economic development. If we are talking about an airport terminal, sea port, container terminal, rail or subway station, inter-modal transportation centers, cargo storage facilities, design is fundamental for successful operations.
