ArchStudioEriceira
We Create Homes
We believe there are places where we sense to belong.
Our purpose is to create spaces where people feel at home.
Method
Identification
From Challenge to Built Idea
The ArchStudioEriceira process arises from the dialogue between three dimensions: a place; a program; a culture.
CULTURE is what we call the reference images and ideas that inspire us. They reveal the atmosphere we aim to achieve in our spaces.
Idea
The Imagery of the Place
It is in the articulation between place, programme and culture that we seek a concept. From the concept emerges an idea of space. It is usually a simple way to (re)organize, (re)build, and transform the place. In the idea development process, affinities are identified, and 'schemes' for space composition are established: hierarchies, functionalities; relationships between interior and exterior spaces. Dimensions.
Project
The Prelude to the Work
The project is the planning of the intervention and the work. The development of the idea and its schematic nature. The definition of the formal aspects characterizing the spaces. The project details, precisely defines, and quantifies: dimensions, materials, construction solutions.
Work
Transforming the Idea Into a Built Place
The work is the materialization of the idea. Monitoring the work and construction processes are key factors for project realization. The quality of the project ensures the reliability of construction solutions.
Solutions
New housing, rehabilitation, offices, commercial and service spaces, hospitality facilities for public or private clients.
Our commitment is total involvement with all stakeholders in the process: from professionals responsible for multiple specialties to the client.
The client plays a fundamental role in the entire process. Without a client, there is no project. Therefore, projects are developed with - and for - the client.
