Andreescu&Gaivoronschi, Cepezed, Taillandier and others. -

The urban world in which we live can seem oppressive in its excess of form and noise. To confront this, their architecture aims to transmit tranquility and sensitivity. They work with the goal that all of their projects be balanced, full of energy and with an own style. These goals, combined with a solid technical and professional foundation, permit them to generate solutions which are both technically and economically viable. They strive to be original, and their methods of professional expression help separate their work from common stereotypes. They are inspired by the surrounding environment and by the relationship between form and materials adapted to these surroundings. A strong interest in life, as well as urban and social development is reflected in all their projects. As fruit of this concern, they have specialized in the sport and leisure architecture.
