About the company
Taller ACÁ is not just an architectural firm; it is a vibrant studio located in the heart of Guatemala City, where architecture meets activism. Our focus centers around the historic and cultural richness of this beautiful city, allowing us to create designs that resonate with the community and reflect the unique identity of the local environment. We believe that architecture is a powerful tool to inspire change and foster connections among people.
At Taller ACÁ, we are committed to a participatory design approach that prioritizes the voices of the community. Our team, led by architects Jorge Villatoro and Hans Schwarz Bassila, utilizes their extensive experience in urban planning to ensure that every project we undertake is a collaborative effort. We engage with residents, stakeholders, and local organizations to understand their needs, aspirations, and challenges, ensuring that our designs serve the community's best interests.
Our studio specializes in a range of architectural services, from urban design and public space revitalization to residential and commercial projects. Each design is tailored to harmonize with its surroundings while promoting sustainability and social inclusiveness. We are passionate about creating spaces that not only meet functional requirements but also contribute to the cultural and social fabric of Guatemala City.
As we navigate the complexities of urban environments, our vision is rooted in the belief that architecture should enhance the quality of life for all citizens. We strive to create spaces that are accessible, inviting, and reflective of the dynamic spirit of the communities we serve. At Taller ACÁ, we are excited to continue our journey of transforming ideas into reality, one project at a time.
