BOX arquitectos
os arquitetos de Ponta Delgada

Every new line drawn by the BOX arquitectos studio, operating out of Ponta Delgada, Azores, reveals an unmistakable signature. For our team at Ivo Tavares Studio, documenting the evolution of this office through our architectural photography is always an exciting challenge. Read the text below to understand the genesis of these projects, and right after, discover the gallery of works we have already captured together.

"Founded in 2007 in Lisbon, with a strong connection to Ponta Delgada, BOX architects associates is based on creative foundations, possibly unexpected, capable of questioning pre-established architectural concepts and words.
​
With original language, the atelier exhaustively explores the dialogue between form, place and function, to reach the explanation of man in the place. The rigor of scale with the relationship of proportion is the obsessive theme
in the dynamics of the studio's architectural project.

We are not concerned with the difference, we are concerned with the monotonous discourse of normality.

The “creative box” box : architects assumes a fascination with formal and spatial experimentation, based on a technical approach inseparable from the act of designing.
​
It is part of the nature of the box, the constant search for archetypes, which explain and represent the evolution
of the “act” of inhabiting the philosophical and human space, in a cultural and sociological understanding of the universe.

We depend, therefore, on the constant challenge to our ability to overcome, in approaching the paradigm of
architecture."
