haz arquitectura began its professional activity in Barcelona in 1996. It is made up of an internal team of architecture professionals and a series of external collaborators (structures, installations, geotechnics, budgets, environmental control) who work together in the development of projects. Excellence and environmental sustainability are our main commitments.

The types of buildings we develop are:

Residential (single-family and multi-family housing, hotel), Health (clinics, CAP, hospitals and residences), Teaching, Administrative (offices, public facilities), Sports and Culture.
