LARC Architects

Here’s the deal: we are a couple of architects that’s in love with architecture and the process of making and this is our philosophy: We believe architecture is a living creature, something that can mould and adapt with time and circumstance. Good architecture is not mute, it speaks to the past, respects the future and is fully present in its current context. Architecture is born from the realization of a need, from having a purpose. This need can only be truly fulfilled with an architecture that is formed by its context, that borrows from the environment and emerges from a discovery of the intangible clues found in its landscape. Therefore, architecture cannot be a preconceived idea that is brought forth from a certain style, its reason for being runs much deeper than that. The form and aesthetic emerge from an understanding of the constraints and opportunities found in the landscape & context. From the climatic conditions, the materiality of the site and local craftsmanship. Architecture that is discovered through a process of analyses is Architecture that transcends time.
