“The mallorquine practice TEd’A is a workshop and a studio. They propose to move forward by looking back, without losing sight of the past and tradition; to continue to perfect tradition as an indisputable heritage; to defend regional identities against totalizing uniformity. We prefer evolution to revolution.”

The position and work of TEd’A Arquitectes stands out to mark a cultural position against naïve technophilia. The office has a theoretical base and a body or work that substantiates their approach. The mallorquine practice belong to the generation of architects that has transcended the binary opposition of modernism versus postmodernism.

Without nostalgia, without self-aggrandizing pathos, their work shows how respectful syntheses of contexts are possible everywhere. Standing in line with similar architects who preceded them. TEd’A Arquitectes offer an approach that understands their presence and actions as simultaneously specific in time and opportunities as well as general and transcendent.

TEd’A Arquitectes are nominated for the Schelling Architecture Award 2020.
