Penthouse in Magdalena emerges inside a building located in Colonia del Valle, in Mexico City. The concept that generated the design consisted on the integration of allusive elements of the Mexican culture, contrasting with details and contemporary accents, seeking to generate a harmonious and integral composition.
The characteristics of the space and its context allowed the development of an environment with adequate natural lighting and views to the exterior, granting freshness to the environment and privacy in relation to the boundaries of the site. The project is characterized by the high degree of detail in its elements, creating a harmonious and aesthetic character, capable of generating different sensations in the user.
A Danish couple based in South America engaged us to design and equip their newly built Copenhagen apartment. Furniture, fittings, colours and materials were carefully selected for the clients.
With the client’s desire to create a modern apartment, whilst avoiding the usual collection of Scandinavian classics, we brought life and personality to the cold white bare rooms and gave their home a sense of meaning and personality. Several bespoke pieces were created for this home – library wall shelving, walk-in closets and benches, office cabinet walls, kitchen cabinet, entrance wall storage and a lounge table with thick terrazzo plates and brass details.

The location, on a small hill, is privileged. The longitudinal field is open to the south and the view of mountain Youhtas. -How can a linear residence deal with the intense cretan light? The house necessarily unfolds along the south side, the side of the sun: through a double curvature the building is bend by the power of the sun’s path from east to west.
Project is situated on the slope of Nevezis river in the forest surrounding.
Shape of the plot, with agile corner at the entrance and forrest view on the opposite site, formed two main volumes of living and resting, both connected with main entrance and workplace.
Black House – brave facade material merges building to surrounding, creating a peaceful synergy with nature.
When it comes to revitalising London nightlife, brothers Alastair and Nicholas Heathcote have prior experience. Everything they’ve touched in the last five years – their Indian-inspired cocktail den The$ Imperial$Durbar and Himalayan haunt The$Hill$Station$in Tooting, as well as their East London venture, the late-night Dalston tapas joint La$Cabina – has become a hit.
Located in a busy street of Sant Boi de Llobregat, a nearby city of Barcelona, this dental office was designed to capture the attention of the pedestrians and cars passing by. The space, an open plan establishment overlooking the street, was rather small for the required program but offered instead a large and well exposed façade.
The clients had built their business at a nearby dental office that had become too small and old fashioned. They now wanted a modern clinic that would keep their friendly local character while attracting new clients. A strong and individual corporate image as a competitive argument to differentiate from the franchised dental offices was always a goal.
An important collection of African art rests on the wooden sideboard in the living room of Ramp House, located in a quiet garden-neighbourhood in São Paulo. The owners intend to convert the place in a cultural foundation in the future, thus the antique pieces, collected over the last decades, have determined the architectural design approach for the house: the use of the social spaces reveal the African masks in a delicate exhibition experience, in which art blends with everyday objects and domestic life merges with the historical pieces without the feeling of living in a museum.
We have been novated to carry out a change of use of a space, located in the first floor of a residential building in the expansion district of Bilbao, into a dwelling. Said space was previously destined to provide an activity connected with the tertiary sector.
Such original space was divided into five small offices, two toilets and a L-shape corridor that gave access to all these facilities.
Due to the radical change of use of the space, we decided not to keep any existing element and emptied the space completely, as a preliminary step to establish the new layout of the dwelling.
The fairness of the plaice, the purity of the family and the focus on the crafts together create a new property that is rooted in the landscape tradition of the bocage landscape.
This home we named the Artery residence. The couple has been repeatedly named by ARTnews in the top 200 contemporary art collectors globally. The focus of this home is the art collection and how it flows and is pumped throughout the home, by way of a main ‘artery’.
