Every corporation is an institution, but not every institution is a corporation, this has profound reflections on its architecture.
CORPORATE AND INSTITUTIONAL ARCHITECTURE
"Institution: Action of instituting, establishing, founding something that is necessary."

WIBOO
The headquarters of a cryptocurrency company where all the rooms are loose and rearrangeable, like Lego pieces.
Fun, modularity and versatility.
Innovation and disruption as a business value.

MACJEE DEFENSE
The factory was a simple shed.
But its content was anything but simple.

EUCLIDES MIRAGAIA COLLEGE
This campus, to be built in the middle of a needy community, has in its design a strong integration with the existing neighborhood.
Accessible education, great interaction with the surroundings and the existing social fabric.
There is no education without integration.

Miyamoto Musashi Memorial Dojo
A place for reflection and learning.
Each of the rings on the floor represents a reflection of the Book of Five Rings.
As important as Musashi's stories are the techniques. Here, learning is also exposure.
Pure knowledge.

FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH
Before the temple, there was a forest that was going to be removed. We chose not to remove the forest and still integrated the temple into it, in a fusion that reveals the commitment to the surroundings and the community.
