The trio, founders of the architecture studio El Sindicato Arquitectura, have earned a number of awards and recognition for their work including the Building of the Year 2020 award in the Small Scale and Installations category, a spot at the Young Architects of Latin America exhibition, and appearances in media outlets such as ArchDaily, Gestalten, and the BBC.
