ABOUT 

DOS – G arquitectos is a boutique architecture and interior design studio founded in 2010 in Panama by Panamanian architect Ginnette Gotti and Italian architect Ivan Grippaldi.

The diverse professional training and cultural backgrounds of the founders converge through a process of cultural, formal, and stylistic contamination, enriching each project with depth and added value.

Our practice understands architecture as an articulating, critical, and collaborative discipline, shaped by people, context, and scale. Working across different scales—from interiors and residential projects to urban environments—allows us to approach design with sensitivity, empathy, and precision.

The studio works across architecture and interior design, approaching each project as a highly personalized process. The practice has received awards in international competitions, has been featured in local and international publications, and has participated in international exhibitions.

 

PHILOSOPHY 

At DOS – G arquitectos, each project is understood as a challenge, an opportunity, and an adventure.

A challenge to respond to the client’s vision while maintaining architectural rigor and identity.
An opportunity to improve quality of life, whether at a domestic, commercial, or urban scale.
And an adventure, as design is always an unpredictable and dynamic process driven by exploration and discovery.

We believe architecture and interior design should evoke emotions, inspire reflection, and create meaningful spatial experiences. Our design process is rooted in dialogue, collaboration, and a deep understanding of context, ensuring each project is both unique and timeless.

EXPERTISE

DOS – G arquitectos specializes in high-end and luxury architecture and interior design projects, combining Italian design culture with contemporary sophistication.

The studio has extensive experience in luxury residential, hospitality, and retail projects, acting as local architects for prestigious Italian luxury brands such as Tod’s, Roberto Cavalli and Valentino. Our role ensures precise design interpretation, technical coordination, and flawless execution in accordance with international standards.

Our services cover the full design process—from concept development, architecture and interior, to technical documentation and on-site coordination—delivering refined, bespoke, and meticulously executed spaces.
