KEMA studio is a collaboration of two architects.

After years of experience gained in portuguese architectural offices, there emerged an idea to create their very own studio, based on innovation and creativity, and giving special attention to detail.

The studio began its practice in 2015 with renovations of “unwanted”, rejected properties, where discovery of their true potential and their return to existence could be achieved only by means of a profound study.

Our principle is to revive the spirit of reminiscence of each place with contemporary techniques and elements. In our belief, there is always a story to be discovered and told through a thorough intervention.

Though our main focus is renovation, we also develop new construction projects of various scales and functions.
