DOS G ARQUITECTOS
STUDIO
dos G arquitectos was established in 2010 in Panama by Ginnette Gotti and Ivan Grippaldi. It is active in architecture, interior design and industrial design. The different professional training and cultural background of the two co-founder architects find their balance on each project that through the "contamination" that could be cultural, formal, style, etc. is enriched with an added value.
Our practice is a space to understand architecture as an articulating, critical, collaborative, inclusive and transversal discipline that is inserted in the social sphere to be experienced by humans.
People, contexts and scales articulate our projects in order to generate sensations, provoke, communicate and think.
We design and develop projects at different scales, ranging from the object to the housing unit to the urban scale and this gives us the opportunity to face each one with greater sensitivity and empathy.
PHILOSOPHY
Each project represents a challenge, an opportunity and yet an adventure. The challenge is try to find a proposal that meets the client expectations and ours. An opportunity offered to us to change and improve the quality of life of our client, the community and/or city, depending of the scale of the project. And an adventure, because it is an unexpected event that has its risk but at the same time it is exciting, as it is for us to design.
We are currently working on urban planning, architecture & interiors, object design, academic and social projects.
The studio has received awards in international competitions, has been published in several international magazines and is currently participating at the BIENNALE DI ARCHITETTURA DI VENEZIA (22 may-22 August) in the exhibition entitled "Best International Houses design" organized by Casa Platform.
