Ideo Arquitectura

At Ideo Arquitectura we have a different approach to our work: we passionately try to make every project into a sort of small film with a beginning and an end.

We seek out an idea, we think about it, we write it down and we draw it until it becomes a coherent, clear and precise script, like that of a film.

Each and every new project is an important scene of a great film which we began shooting in 2001. Ideo Arquitectura is a multidisciplinary team managed by Virginia del Barco and focuses mainly in the fields of Architecture, Interior Design and renovation of buildings, both in terms of the development and management of a project as well as subsequent control and monitoring. We handle all the required procedures ranging from permit processing and technical aspects of the building work to legal advice concerning rules and regulations, etc.

Our philosophy is based on “the development of an IDEA”. When we get involved in a new project, our aim is to guide our client through all its design aspects and create an innovative and modern space, whether it’s a small layout and alteration project or a residential promotion. Whatever the project, it can turn into a job as passionate as it is practical. We take on every new project as a challenge and hold ourselves accountable for every detail. When the project is completed, we submit a small report, a sort of film that starts with our first sketch and ends with the final. All it needs is a TITLE.
