spaceworkers
|
The spaceworkers®, arises from a desire common to all three mentors of the project, Carla Duarte, Henrique Marques and Rui Dinis, to create a “brand” capable of representing a transversal approach between areas as diverse as architecture, economics, the Design and Mobiiário, proving to be possible and even recommended a complementarity between these different areas. The sharing of the same way of being in the world of architecture and willingness to innovate and grow, has undoubtedly been the start for the creation of this workshop.
While creative workshop seeks to instill in its work a hallmark of innovation and sensory excitement, appealing to the sensibilities of its customers to a new way of thinking and perceiving the space as an instrument of communication, planning and interaction with the public. The work done by spaceworkers ®, seek meet the needs of its customers, avoiding however the obvious of common places and formal stereotypes, by exploring a path where form follows emotion and where the spaces created are symbols of identity and contemporary. Despite the conceptual boldness that characterize their work, the spaceworkers ®, constantly seeking the balance between formal and functional options and the global cost of the work, because it believes that it is precisely this balance lies the added value of their work. |
