Spanish duo Olga Felip and Josep Camps founded their firm in 2006, looking to reinvent traditional Catalan culture in a contemporary way. Their civic work includes the elegantly austere health centre in L'Aldea and the Ferreries Cultural Centre, a sober structure that contrasts its dark exterior with a symphony in striated light within, while residential projects include the sleek, single-storey Villa Sifera.
