architect at MFA Studio, about the daily work of an architect, which consists not only of design but also of organizational tasks, and how Teamogy helps in this regard.<\/b> <\/strong><\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n Malgorzata<\/em>: What makes you different as an architectural studio and what attracts clients?<\/b><\/p>\n Grzegorz<\/strong><\/em>: <\/b>We create projects tailored to the needs of the investor. Each project is important to us because it is a showcase of our work. We look at the world pragmatically and when designing buildings, we look for a dialogue between the existing tissue and what is to be created. This is not always easy, as our country is unfortunately full of absurd buildings. That’s why we feel the need to share our knowledge and experiences with the people we have come to work with.<\/p>\n We can boast of bold projects and realizations for our time. By talking to the investor during the preparation of the project concept, we often manage to change his approach. And this also gives us satisfaction, because by doing so we fulfill our message to make the world around us pretty and interesting.<\/p>\n <\/em><\/b><\/p>\n Malgorzata<\/em>: So when implementing a project, you also take into account how it corresponds with the environment?<\/b><\/p>\n Grzegorz<\/strong><\/em>: <\/b>Definitely yes. We want our realizations to be the best testimony of our skills and at the same time it is important that they beautify the existing space.<\/p>\n <\/em><\/b><\/p>\n Malgorzata<\/em>: Which projects are you most proud of?<\/b><\/p>\n Grzegorz<\/strong>: <\/b>We are very satisfied with all the projects. In the implementation of industrial projects, the most important thing is functionality. They are interesting but give a little less room for improvement. So first of all I would point out our recent realizations of service facilities and residential projects.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.teamogy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/projekt-domu-blizniak.jpg\u00bb title_text=\u00bbprojekt-domu-bli\u017aniak\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.4″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb border_radii=\u00bbon|6px|6px|6px|6px\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.teamogy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/248550637_4354708144576862_6168435096398733800_n.jpg\u00bb title_text=\u00bb248550637_4354708144576862_6168435096398733800_n\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.4″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb border_radii=\u00bbon|6px|6px|6px|6px\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.teamogy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/nowoczesny-dom-jednorodzinny-katowice-2.jpg\u00bb title_text=\u00bbnowoczesny-dom-jednorodzinny-katowice-2″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.4″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb border_radii=\u00bbon|6px|6px|6px|6px\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.teamogy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/260265064_4445217632192579_722415190838053561_n.jpg\u00bb title_text=\u00bb260265064_4445217632192579_722415190838053561_n\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.4″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb border_radii=\u00bbon|6px|6px|6px|6px\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.9.4″ text_font=\u00bb|300|||||||\u00bb ol_font=\u00bb|700|||||||\u00bb max_width=\u00bb100%\u00bb module_alignment=\u00bbcenter\u00bb custom_margin=\u00bb0px||0px||false|false\u00bb custom_padding=\u00bb||17px||false|false\u00bb text_text_align=\u00bbleft\u00bb locked=\u00bboff\u00bb]We started 11 years ago still as students with the design of small architectural forms, which we also realized later. This taught me a lot. Hence the name MFA (Small Architectural Form).<\/p>\n Since then, there have been plenty of these realizations. From an office building for an IT company, for the design of which we won a competition while still in college, to the design of a single-family house in Katowice, which we will be able to show off in a moment. In the latter project we managed to remodel such a typical Polish cube on a small plot of land in a very interesting and modern way, achieving a great effect, with which we and the investor are very pleased.<\/p>\n <\/em><\/b><\/p>\n <\/em><\/b>Malgorzata<\/em>: Do you have any best practices?<\/b><\/p>\n Grzegorz<\/strong><\/em>: <\/b>Designing is a complex process, where many things influence what kind of building will be created and in what form. We try to collect and analyze this information and find something among them that will allow us to create a concept that both we and the client will be satisfied with, that will simply look good and interesting. This is helped by working in a team and the clash of many ideas.<\/p>\n Malgorzata<\/em><\/b>: What kind of projects do you deal with most often? Commercial or residential?<\/b><\/p>\n Grzegorz<\/strong><\/em>: <\/b>Over the years of our company’s activity, we have successfully implemented various projects, of different sizes and functions and in many locations, both in Poland and around the world.
