ÁBATON Arquitectura Award winning design firm. Architecture, Planning/Urban Design, Construction, Interior Design, Research and Consulting.
ÁBATON was founded in 1998 by Camino Alonso, Ignacio Lechón and Carlos Alonso. From the beginning they aimed for the projects to express the facts that defined the Studio. To achieve it they started up the Construction Company in order to control the whole building process as well as the final result. ÁBATON projects’ impact determined the high turnout of clients searching for a place that expressed the same language of light, sustainability and space that ÁBATON applies to all its projects. Currently, ÁBATON is developing more efficient work processes to confront bigger challenges that have to do with the international growth of the Studio.
Since ÁBATON was established, Camino Alonso has been the Creative Director, implementing a unique style based on the design of efficient, simple and, above all, human spaces linked to the environment and with a special concern for nature.
ÁBATON is fully aware of the footprint that building generates in the environment and our goal is to minimise that footprint as far as possible: our construction projects are designed to include low environmental impact materials that are ecological, easily recyclable and affordable; rainwater is always returned to the land to ensure the natural moisture of the area being developed.
To date, ÁBATON Arquitectura has completed about 200 projects (housing, hotels, offices, restaurants) and it has renovated more than 80 homes in Spain and abroad. Our work has been acknowledged in the specialised press in more than 80 countries
