For over 25 years, Angelo Bucci has been dedicated to building design, sharing his time between both professional and academic duties. These parallel activities define a special approach to SPBR projects, in which the professional demands are understood as an engaging opportunity to research and speculate new ideas.

Our projects show a critical view on aspects of the modern architecture, and highlight the importance of structural accuracy and distinctness, construction viability, transparency, and most importantly, a comprehension of the urban space as dialogue between architectural works. The projects of SPBR have become increasing recognition in prizes, conferences, publications and exhibits in Brazil and throughout the world.

The office has its greatest stimulus in exploring the field of an unrealized possibility, aiming a full of senses drawing, informed by previous experiences and the proper use of resources.

Angelo Bucci has been professor at FAU USP since 2001 and also a visiting professor in Argentina, Chile, Ecuador, Italy, Switzerland (ETH Zurich, 2013-14) and the United States (ASU, 2005; Berkeley, 2006; GSD Harvard, 2008; UT Austin, 2010; Yale, 2013; MIT, 2008, 2016 and 2017). In 2011 he was named Honorary Fellow of the American Institute of Architects (HF AIA). His work has been worldwide exhibited through publications, lectures and exhibitions.
