Sensuality, respect for the site, pragmatic design, optimization of resources, open forms, and permeability – all of these values are developed within our work through a plan carried out from reality, the poetics of things, the search for potentials, systems, and new languages.
Jorge Vidal is an architect who graduated from the Escuela Técnica Superior de Arquitectura de Barcelona in 2005. In 2004 he studied at the Academy of Architecture of Mendrisio in the atelier of Peter Zumthor and Valerio Olgiati. In 2003 he studied in Greece with Ellia Zenghelis thanks to a scholarship awarded to him by the Mies Van der Rohe Foundation.
