ATELIER

The scale and scope of our projects are diverse. From housing to architecture renovation, from public and private facilities to public space, from lightning to ceramic tiles design. All our works have been developed through the exploration of similar methodological frameworks and creative process, which challenge multiple design investigations to seek for new solutions and to produce spatial and architectural outcomes as result of multidisciplinary synthesis.

Catarina Almada Negreiros and Rita Almada Negreiros founded Ateliers de Santa Catarina in 2000. Ateliers de Santa Catarina are a Lisbon based creative hub that promotes active interdisciplinary participation between architects, artists and designers.
