CMV Architects

«This book is a snapshot of a key moment for CMV: the celebration of its 30th anniversary. It is a crystallisation of ideas, visions, anecdotes and reflections from three decades of experience. A conversation in which the personal and the professional intermingle and reveal a path full of passion and commitment, success and challenge, learning and clear evidence of growth.

Today, CMV has six partners, 49 employees and a portfolio of more than 300 projects. With offices in Palma de Mallorca, Barcelona and Hanoi, it works in several different areas: residential, hotels, and corporate. The partners say that their story is based on the trust of their customers, and that without the bond of friendship that unites them, none of these milestones would have been possible.

These pages offer a deeper picture of their complicities, shared values and diverse inspirations; a multifaceted view of the profession and its implications in a globalized and perennially changing context. Faced with the challenges posed by the sector – ecological, social, technological, economic – CMV adapts and reinvents itself to keep its mission intact: to build at the service of the planet and those that inhabit it.

But above all, this book is a eulogy to friendship and the shared love of architecture and design. In short, beauty.»
