The Studio
The Swedish-Mexican architect duo, Francisco Cortina and Robert Käll,
joined forces in 2013 under Cortina & Käll, a multidisciplinary architecture studio.
The partnership is enriched with projects from
Mexico City to Ulricehamn and from Gothenburg to Doha.
From the offices at Stora Torp manor in Gothenburg,
the team works tirelessly to provide sustainable, long-term solutions
from product and interior design to housing and urban planning.
