Our Mission
KHOURY Arquitetura was born as a reflection of the values and journey of its founders. With a history marked by notable awards, including the Holcim Foundation prize and recognition on the Forbes Under 30 list, the company brings a commitment to innovation and sustainability.
Our mission is to address the crucial challenges of the construction industry. In a context where the sector is responsible for a substantial portion of global CO2 emissions and waste generation, KHOURY is dedicated to developing strategies for low-impact architecture. This translates into a focus on minimizing energy and natural resource consumption, as well as making appropriate choices in materials and construction methods.
Additionally, we are committed to creating environments that promote the well-being and health of occupants. We value the use of natural materials, minimizing the presence of harmful substances in the environment. We prioritize contact with nature, integrating more vegetation to purify the air and balance the environment. Our projects are also designed to optimize the use of natural light and ventilation, providing spaces that promote comfort and vitality.
At KHOURY Arquitetura, we believe in the transformative power of architecture to create a positive social impact. Our commitment is to design spaces that not only meet functional needs but also promote inclusion, accessibility, and community well-being. We strive to honor local culture by using local construction techniques and knowledge, strengthening the regional economy, and fostering social cohesion. Furthermore, our projects prioritize community resilience, while also focusing on providing access to clean water and energy for communities.
Finally, we are dedicated to creating architecture of high quality, functionality, and beauty. Our approach is based on eco-minimalism, allowing each project to integrate harmoniously into the local landscape.
At KHOURY Arquitetura, we believe it is possible to unite technical excellence, environmental responsibility, and human well-being in every project we conceive.
