BAU-B Arquitectura i Urbanisme is a design office for urban planning, urban design, and architecture. Over the last 30 years BAU has established itself as an international practice with a team of different professionals: urban planners, urban designers, architects, landscape architects and engineers.

BAU has been involved in the strategic urban planning and design of cities around the world, most of which involved public-private partnerships.

BAU can rely on an extended academic and field-research experience, as well as a long-standing practice in Urban and Architectural design, with experience in the implementation on a European level of complex urban projects on derelict infrastructural sites and in the development of various intermediate scale residential urban residential projects.

Thanks to multidisciplinary approach to complex design issues, BAU has an extensive practice in large-scale urban master planning and design, landscape interventions, waterfront projects and public space projects.

We are convinced that the sustainable cities of the future will have to be equipped with communal structures and spaces. For this reason, we base our plans on an in-depth analysis of all the aspects of a mission, so that the solutions fit into the physical context to respond to its problems and create these convivial spaces.

BAU’s professional, interdisciplinary, and multicultural team is based in Barcelona. We are used to working outside Spain with local teams from different countries. This mixed and different perspective can be developed by following shared “principles” which find quite specific declinations according to the vision of landscape designers or architects, for example, who are involved in the execution of a strong holistic “vision” capable of developing in time.
