Architecture & Planning - Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain
External Reference Studio is a Barcelona-based architecture and design firm that aims at breaking the boundaries between architecture, visual arts and digital tools for generating unique spatial experiences. Our studio is an international hub of young designers led by experienced professionals with a specialization in retail and hospitality. We provide our clients with a clear insight of the design process, allowing them to participate in the shaping of their ideal spaces. Our careful attention to detail is matched by our expertise in the digital tools required for the control of complex shapes and accurate details.The digital age is causing a disconnect between people and the physical reality, promoting convenience over interaction. As architects, we believe that physical space is going to play a fundamental role in reminding humanity the relevance of experiences and memories in building identity. As professionals, we believe that physical space can represent a great opportunity for brands to overcome the life-threatening challenges brought on by the digitalization of services.We aim at designing unique spatial experiences that are capable of generating valuable emotions and memories in the users of our architecture. In order to engage deeply with people, we use both traditional fabrication and digital innovation, integrating them in a way that enhances both materiality and interaction, seamlessly transitioning between physical and virtual spatial performances.
