It is exciting to imagine how, since the Stone Age —a period that began approximately around 10,000 BC— and thanks to humanity's long evolutionary process, the tools we used have evolved from simple stones to complex robotic systems. These advancements represent a revolution in production methods, both at the current industrial level and on a local scale.

Clients may not see sustainability as a priority out of fear of operational costs and quality. While these are legitimate concerns, it is our responsibility as architects to listen and foster a collaborative culture that answers client issues while also reducing our carbon footprint.

Conceptually, millwork volumes - rather than conventional partitions - read as floating objects while delineating the different spaces.
