Salagnac Arquitectos

Salagnac Arquitectos is a design studio based in Guanacaste, Costa Rica, co-founded by Evangelina Quesada and Lucca Spendlingwimmer. Their work is rooted in Contemporary Tropical Architecture, which seeks to harmonize building, climate, and human comfort through bioclimatic strategies, efficient systems, and sensitive integration with nature.

Since its inception in 2006 in Nosara, the studio has developed a distinct approach: each project responds uniquely to site, environment, and context, with the aim of minimizing ecological impact while enhancing inhabitant experience. Their design language emphasizes natural ventilation, sustainable detailing, material authenticity, and a seamless relationship between indoors and outdoors.
