In the office there was always this tendency to make only the essentials. Solve the problem in a clever and efficient. Simple preferably.
 Can apparently look something minimalist, but it is not. The design called anonymous is well resolved with simple solutions and intelligent. And it is far from minimalist.
 so we want our clean design and make-up of excesses. Lives of problem solving. Various types of problems. Some related to a given space in any architectural intervention, others with an order for a company or with the characteristics of a new material. The solutions must also be different, declining trends or formulas.
