box: arquitectos - Innovative Architectural Design
About the company
Box: arquitectos was established in Lisbon in 2007, with significant connections to the Ponta Delgada area. The studio's approach to architecture is notably flexible, allowing it to question and redefine commonly accepted notions of both architecture and language.
The core philosophy of the studio hinges on understanding the relationship between human presence and the site. Through innovative design language, box: arquitectos delves deeply into how form, location, and function interact, creating spaces that are not only visually compelling but also contextually relevant.
Driven by a meticulous obsession with size and proportion, the architects at box: arquitectos focus on the subtleties of design rather than merely the grand differences that often dominate architectural discourse. Their work reflects a deeper engagement with the monotony of everyday life, seeking to elevate the ordinary through thoughtful design.
The studio embraces formal and spatial experimentalism, rooted in a technological approach that is essential to the design process. This dedication to innovation allows them to explore new paradigms in architecture, constantly seeking archetypes that resonate within a culturally and sociologically defined context.
As the field of architecture continues to evolve, box: arquitectos challenges itself to adapt and respond to new obstacles. Their commitment to understanding the act of inhabiting space informs their work, leading to the creation of environments that are not only functional but also imbued with a philosophical depth.
