Architects Joaquín Torres and Rafael Llamazares met at university. From that moment, they understood the need to create architecture that was different and founded the A-cero studio to make it possible. From their memories and reflections, we witness the expression of their professional philosophy; a philosophy that transcends the purely constructive in search of the perfect combination between the functional and the aesthetic.
