A pluridiciplinary architecture studio founded in Lima in 2011 by architect Marina Vella, after an academic process and professional experience in Peru and Switzerland. The studio understands the project as a question with infinite possible answers but only one particular answer that gives form and meaning, for which it develops a process of analysis of three factors: the characteristics of the place, the programmatic requirements and the genius loci of the place, what is not seen but perceived.
The link of these three factors is aligned with the studio’s fundamental design ideas (mantras): respecting and integrating the built elements into the context, minimizing the built area to maximize the exterior spaces, generating connections between users, passage and architecture, achieving a contemporary architecture that uses local techniques and resources, and creating a habitat in harmony with nature.
