Architecture on Stage

Fala Atelier architecture

The trio of architects Fala Atelier share their practice, working on residential conversions that open up interior spaces.

Porto-based Fala Atelier – fala meaning ‘informal conversation’ in Portugese - was founded in in 2013 by Filipe Magalhães, Ana Luisa Soares and Ahmed Belkodhja. The trio all began their careers interning at Harry Gugger Studio in Basel, before going on to work with the renowned SANAA, Toyo Ito and Atelier Bow-Wow.

The practice has worked extensively on residential conversions and new builds, with recent projects including their own house and studio, and a house in Rua do Paraiso which was nominated for the 2019 Mies van der Rohe Award. 

Architecture on Stage is a series of talks by the world's best architects programmed by the Architecture Foundation in partnership with the Barbican Centre.
