Our Mission
KHOURY Arquitetura was born as a reflection of the values and journey of its founders, driven by a strong commitment to innovation and sustainability.
Our mission is to address the pressing challenges of the construction industry. In a sector responsible for a significant 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 careful choices in materials and construction methods.
Additionally, we strive to create environments that promote the well-being and health of occupants. We value the use of natural materials, minimizing the presence of harmful substances in indoor spaces. Our designs emphasize a strong connection to nature, incorporating abundant vegetation to purify the air, enhance thermal comfort, and increase urban biodiversity. We also optimize the use of natural light and ventilation, ensuring spaces that are more comfortable and healthier.
We believe in the transformative power of architecture to generate a positive social impact. We design spaces that not only meet functional needs but also promote accessibility, inclusion, and social cohesion. Our commitment includes valuing the cultural particularities of each region where we operate, incorporating local construction techniques and knowledge—methods that are often more energy-efficient and make responsible use of available resources.
Finally, our eco-minimalist approach ensures that each project integrates harmoniously with the local landscape, respecting cultural identity, natural resources, and the specific climatic conditions of each region.
