We work mostly on local project of different scales, both private and public (offices, hospitals, museums, etc.). We have also organized a workshop on architecture for children. We care about the ecological profile of our projects; as a construction material, we mostly use timber, and for insulation we use natural fibers.

For fun and for the experience of crossing borders – literally and mentally.
