VA studio is an architecture firm supported by a wide and flexible multidisciplinary platform which develops projects amidst several research areas while searching for new concepts and perspectives for the architectural, planning and urbanism standards.Founded in Porto by Maria João Veloso e Vasco Aragão in 2008, the firm originated in the necessity of giving unity and self-identity to previously executed projects, concluded in the preceding years in association with founding partners.The atelier works in constant receptivity to collaboration between artists and designers of numerous technical and artistic disciplines in an experimental fashion, which aids in the creation of a space where Art and Project combine perfectly. A space where thirst for project execution can be freely quenched within a spirit of critical reflection.The atelier has been developing projects of several scales and typologies for public and private clients as well as entering various national and international competitions.
