About Fala Atelier
Founded in 2013 in Porto, Portugal, Fala Atelier is led by Filipe Magalhães, Ana Luisa Soares, and Ahmed Belkhodja. The studio prides itself in taking lightness and joy very seriously, a quality reflected in the playfulness and graphic nature of their orderly yet provocative drawings.
The firm’s work has been exhibited at the architecture biennials in Venice and Chicago, the Serralves Foundation, and the Pavillon de l’Arsenal in Paris, and in single exhibitions in Panama, Italy, Macedonia, France, and Portugal.
Fala’s work has been widely published in international media platforms, including Domus, Engawa, Baumeister, Zeppellin, Plot, and The Architectural Review.
Fala has published “01,” a collection of early projects, and the international architecture magazine 2G is publishing a monographic issue on Fala’s work.
