At LBS<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0Arquitectura<\/strong>, we are a firm committed to\u00a0architecture<\/span>\u00a0that drives the\u00a0environmental and cultural regeneration<\/span>\u00a0we need in our era of transition toward decarbonization, with a vision of a prosperous future for all.<\/h4>

We defend an\u00a0architecture<\/span>\u00a0based on a\u00a0bioclimatic design<\/span>,\u00a0responsible in the use of material\u00a0<\/span>resources\u00a0and\u00a0energy<\/span>, which increases people<\/span>‘s quality of life and reduces the ecological footprint on the planet<\/span>.<\/h4>

Our main services<\/strong> are retrofit<\/strong> <\/span>in all its forms, always as the most sustainable option; housing, always understood as efficient and healthy passive houses<\/strong><\/span>; and, on the other hand, building design<\/span> and urban design<\/span> in community public works<\/strong><\/span>.<\/h4><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
