It has a long tradition of collaboration with elite architects and artists from Antoni Gaudí and Joan Miró, to Ricardo Bofill, Arata Izozaki, Jean Nouvel and Richard Rogers. Today, Escofet is at the forefront of the movement for urban transformation, developing solutions that energize, beautify and enhance the usability of public outdoor space.
