We accompany you at all stages of your projects
For each project, we apply a methodology based on a systemic approach to sustainability and collective intelligence through collaborative practices.
Regarding sustainability, our approach goes beyond immediate project goals to consider the broader, long-term impacts on the environment, society, and economy. By focusing on the interconnectedness of systems, we ensure that each project meaningfully contributes to sustainable development, without overlooking hidden challenges.
Collective intelligence is also a cornerstone of our methodology. Through participatory approaches, we place our expertise at the service of our clients and their communities, empowering them to co-create their projects in an informed and engaged way. We believe that projects are truly successful when all stakeholders are actively involved in the process.
Through this commitment, we help cultural assets become genuine actors in the societal transition.
Strategic Diagnostic
To asses the feasibility of your project.
Project Planning
To plan and implement your project.
Operational Support
To improve the functioning of your institution or site.
Strategic Diagnostic
The strategic diagnostic is a crucial first step in any project. It is particularly important when planning the creation, transformation, and enhancement of cultural facilities and sites.
The diagnostic can also serve as a strong foundation to persuade political or financial partners, as well as to present the current situation to stakeholders or users.
New project
For new projects, such as the creation of a library or a museum, we carry out a detailed territorial assessment. Our analysis can also be used to determine what type of asset to plan for in a given area.
Existing asset
We conduct a thorough evaluation of the existing asset and pinpoint opportunities for enhancement. We analyse key aspects, including strategy, organisation, spaces, visitors, flows, and more.
Project Planning
We support you and your team in planning cultural projects, whether you’re building from the ground up, transforming, or enhancing an existing facility or site.
Our services span the entire project lifecycle, from the idea to the inauguration, including conception in collaboration with architects.
Ideation
We assist you in defining your concept based on international trends and the needs of your community. If desired, we organise consultations and workshops to involve all stakeholders and future users in the process.
Budget
To evaluate the financial aspect, we provide a framework for a comprehensive business plan that includes investments, attendance forecasts, revenues, and expenses.
Master planning
Our master planning methodology is based on the PCS (Cultural and Scientific Project), a widely recognised and respected tool that we tailor to the specific needs of each project.
Collection analysis
If you plan to house patrimonial objects, we analyse your collection in terms of quality and quantity to determine the necessary space for exhibition and conservation.
Human resources planning
When a project relies on a permanent workforce, the people will be at the heart of future operations. In such cases, we assist in achieving effective planning to meet the project’s ambitions and ensure precise budget calculations.
Architect selection
We help you choose an architect with or without a competition process. In the case of a competition, we can help define the selection criteria and act as a jury.
Programmatic needs
Once the master planning is established, we guide you through the next step of translating it into elements and spaces.
Scenography and visitor experience
We support you in the scenographic design of an exhibition or in the enhancement of a heritage site. We also support you in designing engaging visitor experiences through a holistic approach.
Visitor and user analysis
By analysing elements related to visitors and users, we ensure the venue achieves universal accessibility, providing everyone with a seamless experience.
Functional program
Based on the programmatic needs, we develop a functional program that outlines the technical requirements for each element and space.
Design process assist
We ensure that the architect’s design aligns with your vision and program, while meeting international standards and sustainability requirements.
Furniture and signage planning
We assist you in selecting furniture and interior decor that complies with the required norms and meets users’ expectations. We help you plan effective signage both inside and outside the institution or site.
Operational Support
We offer a full range of services for assets already in operation.
Governance
We analyse your governance and propose solutions regarding your organisational structure, your management documents, your meeting format, and your communication channels.
Strategic documentation
We support institution managers in creating key documents, such as strategic plans, action plans, institutional or site charters, and strategic timelines.

We assist you in curating engaging and innovative exhibitions, as well as in selecting and managing a scenographer.
