Carcemal headquarters
Carcemal is a major textile producer which has been operating in Portugal for many years. In 2012, the company decided to completely renovate the site they had occupied since 1995. Their goal was to create a headquarters which was more in line with the company’s brand image, and to offer employees a place they would be proud to work.

Kameha Hotel
You do not need to go in to the Kameha hotel in Bonn, Germany, to know that you have arrived somewhere special. Set in a curve of the Rhine in the suburb of Oberkassel, it looks across the river to some of the main elements of the city, or in the other direction to the Siebengebirge mountains. It is a low-lying building, rising only to a maximum of six floors, which makes the most of its position. Luxurious rooms enjoy magnificent views, and the entire hotel is centred on a gigantic transparent hall, that pays tribute to the great glasshouses of the 19th Century, but using 21st Century technology.
