Pianca Arquitetura is an architecture, design, and research firm founded in 2019 by Guilherme Pianca. The firm seeks to define its practice across different scales and project scopes: housing, design, exhibition design, furniture, and research – with the desire to establish a non-dogmatic approach to architecture.

In this way, each project is seen as an opportunity to reflect on professional practice and architectural language – seeking the most precise answer to the demands and constraints involved in each situation.
