Ecosistema Urbano is an open structure devoted to research and architectural design. Its main feature is its high sensitivity towards ecology and its commitment with sustainability of our cities and the whole planet. Contrary to passive theoretical and critical attitudes of architecture, this structure bets for action, from a critical, proactive point of view of reality, used as project mechanism.
