It will be our pleasure to help spreading new Architecture concepts and ideas.
Urban acupuncture. To intervene in territory the minimum, yet sufficiently as to improve the deficiencies found. This is how AGi architects has faced this extension of a built dwelling; a building that, appropriating of part of a public and residual space, managed to generate a house that improves the life of its occupants as well as the life of the inhabitants of the main dwelling.
Parting from the base of an existing staircase, a warehouse and a void, an evolving structure that enhances internal spaces and dignifies open space is generated, conferring a new scale.
