Jorge Almaz¨¢n Architects is an architecture and urban design practice committed to create environmentally responsible and socially inclusive spaces. Based in Tokyo, and with projects in Japan and Spain, we find constant sources of inspiration in the Japanese material sensitivity and in the Mediterranean urban liveliness. Our practice is translocal: We believe in the international transferring of ideas, and in the critical distance afforded by a foreign gaze, but at the same time we always commit to the local materiality and spatial practices of each context
