The quest for a balanced relationship between built and natural environment remains one of the primary issues of architecture, especially nowadays that scientific progress leads to a way of living, governed by consumer goods and technology symbols. Within this «techno-centric» era, architecture is required to respond with intellectual, sustainable, critical, and sentimental practices and alternative forms of knowledge. By intervening between the physical phenomena and the human being, architecture contributes – both on a pragmatic and semantic level –to the satisfaction of forgotten primordial needs.

Considering sustainable design as integrated to the overall design, the studio works towards the ecological development of the built environment, as a holistic approach harmoniously integrating new projects into contexts with cultural and historic importance. Several of the projects involve renovation and expansion of historically important structures, including national cultural heritage monuments.
