The Studio
The searchfor meaning 57Uno Arquitectura is an architecture studio in Colombia: a creative practice that develops integrated architectural and urban projects based on sustainability principles.
Our philosophy as a studio is summarized in the search for meaning behind every project we develop.
We develop projects that create scenarios of symbiosis and mutual benefit, where dialogue can mediate between our clients, communities, end users, the environment, design intentions and context.
Our working model is collaborative: we use BIM tools to efficiently develop projects across scales and with multiple stakeholders. Through environmental and comfort simulations, we test the strategies and conditions that future users will inhabit.
