HistoricDDG Arquitetura, founded in 2001 to develop the New Circo Voador public competition winning proposal, acts, since then, in diverse areas, from urban planning to residential architecture including educational and institutional buildings design.
PhilosophyArchitecture is a collective art that interferes directly in people’s daily life, in private or public spaces. In this sense, the office searches innovative design solutions adjusted to the local climate and the site’s characteristics in order to alleviate the boundary between the new and the landscape. Bio climatic based solutions that allow correct building functionality not disrespecting the poetic dimension of proposed spaces.
ObjectiveTo fully satisfy the pragmatic and ludic aspirations of users, always respecting the client’s budget, is the goal aimed by the office. In order to achieve this objective, DDG works along with qualified professionals from different areas: acoustics, engineering, landscape design, bio climatic concepts and so on. The office makes use of advanced computer graphics resources for project pre-visualization including 3D models, facilitating comprehension and allowing the detection of eventual necessary adjustments.
