Event Summary
One of the principles that guide us is always seeking to generate a positive impact with our projects. In fact, that’s why we align so well with clients looking to build a responsible home. But what does this mean? What are the indicators that should be taken into account? What are the certifications that validate it? Is it more expensive? In this talk, Cristina, our Design Manager, will go over the main points we must consider to build responsible spaces and share examples from our experience.
