MAGEN ARQUITECTOS<\/strong>\u00a0is an architecture and urbanism office based in Zaragoza, Spain. Since its foundation in 2002, by Jaime Mag\u00e9n (Zaragoza, 1974) and Francisco J. Mag\u00e9n (Zaragoza, 1980), we have designed and built dynamic and significant buildings and spaces. From the first projects to the present, the work of the office has been recognized for its architectural quality, based on innovation, sustainability and excellence. In recent years, our firm has opted to incorporate BIM technology and international energy efficiency standards in the development of projects. At present, the study has projects and works in Spain and Germany.<\/p>

Its practice is interested in Architecture as a both technical and cultural fact, deeply focused on unique investigation, design, development and construction of each project. A fundamental aspect to produce relevant buildings has been the close cooperation with our clients, sharing their objectives. This method of work allows us to manage different projects, in terms of size, scale and complexity, based on the interdisciplinary collaboration and teamwork, with a personalized structure for each project, directed by a steady organization to guarantee the fulfillment of\u00a0 the criteria of quality and efficiency that characterize the work of Magen Arquitectos.<\/p>
