The team counts with a wide experience in project architecture, having worked previously, with the public and private sectors, in several projects, such as: housing projects, public buildings (mainly in health, sports and culture projects), business buildings, retail shops and stores (shops, supermarkets, restaurants and pharmacies), etc.
The team works closely with a network of trustful partners which enables Architailors to complement the architecture service offer with other related services.
