Corona Amaral Senning is distinguished by the quest for architectural quality based on prioritizing the use of resources and constructive solutions, being economically controlled to give a balanced response to the environment, the place and to the user’s requirements.
The approach to the projects is made, especially in the initial stages, with an intense participation of the client acting in a coordinated way with all the involved agents in the production development processes: Definition of the concept, implementation planning, economic and constructive strategies development, comparative study of alternatives, including interior design development and furniture industrial design.
The construction development and execution processes are carried out by integrating into the services of Corona Amaral Senning the management and coordination with specialists in structures and engineering, industrial and suppliers, selection of construction companies, monitoring and quality control of the work and after-sales service.
The developed work fields, not only focus on building construction, but also on strategic planning, urban regeneration and landscaping.
