EUROPE 40 UNDER 40 AWARD

Best Emerging Young Architects & Designers In Europe

COBO - DONOSO Arquitectos

We are a multidisciplinary architecture and design studio that is the result of the sum of experience, technique, design, recognition, tradition and evolution.

RECOGNITION

Awarded the EUROPE 40 UNDER 40 AWARD, making us one of the most promising architecture and design teams in Europe under 40 years old, the new generation called to change architecture and design in the coming years.

CUSTOM DESIGNS

No two projects are the same or similar, this reflects that each of the projects has been the sum of new challenges, new landscapes, new opportunities and uses, which have allowed us to keep a special affection for all of them for the challenges that they allowed us to experience.

SUSTAINABILITY

We believe in a radically different approach; pursuing positive impact. This goal sets the stage and permeates our entire design process, from design configuration to material choice.
