Each project strives to improve the everyday life of the local population, particularly those often not taken into account in mainstream planning practices, ensuring that their needs are reflected in the proposals.
-
Each project strives to render the proposal genuinely sustainable, ensuring that nature is fostered and that the materials and processes proposed allow non-human species to thrive while consolidating a conscious treatment of resources for present and future generations.
-
Each project strives to integrate local populations and relevant stakeholders, alongside local authorities, civil associations, and professionals in the design and decision-making process, with the objective of allowing projects to be successful by responding to the concrete context characteristics and needs.
