ABOUT ESTUDIO KMMK

​

  Estudio kmmk is an architectural practice based in Zurich, Switzerland. It was grounded by Angela Kurmann and Frederico Martins Montanha with collaboration from Sabrina Kurmann, as a fusion and continuity of their solo careers started in Brazil. The Swiss-Brazilian architects have been working in Switzerland for companies like SAM Architekten, Schwarz & Schwarz Architekten and Walker Architekten over the last few years. In addition, they worked in Australia for Tip Top Architecture, FPA Architects International and BKK Architects. For these companies, their work showed itself in the form of various project typologies in cities like Zurich, Lucerne, Brugg, Sydney and Melbourne. Estudio kmmk members already visited more than 45 countries, learning about their history, culture, cities and visiting architectural masterpieces of all times. These architectural trips are for the studio very inspiring and motivating. Working overseas means improvement by doing, and travelling means improvement by learning. The aim is to be tomorrow a better architect and professional than today. Respect for the local culture and technology is also fundamental in their philosophy, it is definitely essential to think globally but act locally. Wherever the project is located in, it has to react to its very local conditions and environment. The following map depicts in more details their trajectories.
