the project
architecture as the science of limits
is an ancient principle that speaks to the core of our project.
This Greek ideal, which invites us to respect balance and avoid excess, is more relevant today than ever. In a world marked by environmental crises and overconsumption, the challenge is to rediscover a new harmony between humanity, nature, and architecture.
Building following the katà métron principle means designing spaces that respect resource limits, adapt to their context, and enhance the connection between the environment and the community. It is an approach that goes beyond aesthetics, embracing ethics: not creating to dominate nature but to engage in dialogue with it.
EACH PROJECT THAT RESPECTS THIS MEASURE
BECOMES AN ACT OF REGENERATION
The cities of the future, designed with this spirit, will not be mere places to dwell in but integrated ecosystems capable of inspiring a more conscious and sustainable way of life.

SPACESHIP EARTH
katà métron is not just an ideal but a commitment
An architecture that balances spatial possibilities with the limitations dictated by respect for available resources, meeting present needs without compromising the future.

We can make all of humanity successful through the global industrial evolution of science, as long as we are not foolish enough to continue exhausting in an astronomical instant the energy savings accumulated over billions of years aboard our Spaceship Earth.
