Architecture & Planning - San Isidro de El General, San Jose, Costa Rica
Our design philosophy consists in an exploration and integration of the environment to the design, we take advantage of the climatic resources and we build with local labor and materials. At ERA, quality, creativity, and professionalism is a must. Our responsibility is to conserve and regenerate the environment instead of draining the life out of our surroundings. We think that the land tells us what to do, that's why we exhaustively investigate the environment and local conditions. We believe design does not require much additional technology, if it responds to natural conditions to minimize the use of resources and maximize sensory experiences.Our bioclimatic and biophilic approach allows us to create a more responsible architecture of a higher special quality providing spaces of well-being and better performance to users.
