BAX is an architecture practice based in Barcelona, led by Boris Bežan and Mónica Juvera. Together with their team and a network of collaborators located in different countries, they have developed works whose quality and originality have been recognized with international awards. BAX studio approaches architecture from a reflective nature, placing at the center of its design process the search for an idea that serves as a catalyst for unique and effective solutions. The result is a coherent and original architecture, while their proven technical expertise allows them to develop projects across a wide range of scales. Spatial richness, dialogue with pre-existing conditions, and the relationship between architecture and public space become common and inherent criteria in their work.
