RCR ARCHITECTS Research
RCR Architects is a Spanish architectural firm comprised of Rafael Aranda, Carme Pigem, and Ramon Vilalta. The firm’s goal is to showcase Catalan architecture and their designs reflect a passion for common spaces with structured and precise layouts. The firm aims to transform each public building into a community hub that goes beyond its primary function.
RCR Architects is known for their serious, intense, and clear expressions in design and the use of climate control features such as porches, blinds, and arched windows. These elements contribute to the firm’s distinct style. The firm adheres to the principle of “less is more” when it comes to architectural elements, using few and natural materials, including raw rusted Corten steel, to create a minimalist yet functional design.
