AGi Architects is an international architecture practice founded by Joaquín Pérez-Goicoechea and Nasser B. Abulhasan, both world-renowned architects who graduated from Harvard University. The firm stands out for the quality, creativity, and exclusive design of its projects, underpinned by an international, multidisciplinary approach. With offices in Kuwait and Madrid, the studio has a team of over 50 professionals, who work in synergy to provide architecture, interior design, and urban planning services. AGi Architects’ main focus is to create environments that represent added value for its clients, through distinctive and creative solutions.

Innovation is the driving force behind AGi Architects, constantly pushing it to find contemporary solutions to address new architectural challenges. The firm sees buildings as open, flexible systems, in which flows and interactions transform the boundaries of the architecture according to the content of its spaces. AGi Architects’ ecological and social commitment can be seen in its design processes and project maintenance, with a particular focus on minimizing energy consumption and maximizing the use of natural resources, such as sunlight. Research is a core value, with every project conceived as an element of everyday life and with the outer shell only an anticipation of the complete experience that will take place inside.

The studio specializes in several areas, including architecture, urban planning and design, and interior design. Its architecture division aims to create spaces that offer long-term sustainability through creative, thoughtfully designed solutions. Selected with an eye on energy-efficiency and cultural awareness, technology is seen as a means of improving living standards.

In its urban planning and design work, the studio is involved in researching urban and social relationships through projects such as the CRC Desert Campus and Alghanim Master Plan in Kuwait. Both of these projects transformed “non-places” into complex areas of interaction, triggering social development through urban planning without imposing foreign cultural models.

Its interior design team is passionate about attention to the details, which, even if invisible to the untrained eye, are essential in the overall vision of a space. Meticulous attention goes into textures, light, and shade to create environments tailored for specific uses and experiences.

AGi Architects has won over 50 international awards, including the prestigious Lafarge Holcim Awards, WAF Awards, Middle East Architect Awards, MIPIM Architectural Review, Identity Design Awards, and Cityscape Awards. The studio has also been recognized by the European Union Mies van der Rohe Award for Contemporary Architecture and the Aga Khan Award for Architecture.

AGi Architects continues to distinguish itself internationally through its commitment to innovation, sustainability, and quality design. With a vision that combines creativity and research, the studio creates environments that enrich the lives of clients and whole communities.
