FROM DESIGN TO BUILD:
THE ERRIÁ DESIGN PROCESS

September 2026

At erriá, spaces are designed
to transform routine into ritual.

FROM DESIGN TO BUILD:
THE COMPLETE STEP-BY-STEP
OF ERRIÁ

September 2026

Discover the complete erriá process: from design to project delivery, we describe our step-by-step approach, define stages and discuss the disciplines that make up the build.

Matter
and memory

June, 2026

The Clodomiro Residence was designed to welcome a daily life built over decades by someone who deeply knows their habits, interests and ways of occupying space.

The project organises different forms of use through axes that structure paths, connect environments and support the activities that make up the resident's daily life.

Subject that organises the work

May, 2026

There is a recurring idea that the office needs to soften its presence, almost step back, so that work can happen. Neutral surfaces, objects reduced to a minimum, everything designed not to distract.

Some objects establish a direct relationship with the body and, from this, begin to organise the surrounding space.

The armchair is one of them.
Places where people linger are one of those elements.

The intention behind the
identity of a project

behind the

a project

March 2026

Before any choice of material, colour, or design, there is an invisible repertoire that guides the project: memories, habits, everyday rhythms, necessary silences, and tolerable excesses. Each person carries their own way of occupying the world — and it is from here that architecture begins.

the time
for decisions

February 2026

Each cycle begins with decisions.

Some are clear, others almost imperceptible — yet it is from them that the work is sustained.

At erriá, decisions accumulate in the thinking that precedes the work, in testing a fit, in materiality, in the way an object meets the body or a space responds to use.

These are decisions that do not seek immediate effect, but slowly build meaning over time.

The time
of things

January 2026

There is a kind of architecture that asserts itself immediately. Another, rarer kind, reveals itself slowly. It does not announce itself; it takes shape over time.

This is the process that has guided erriá over the past year: organising our recent work into a continuous narrative, rather than a sequence of isolated projects. What emerged was not simply the presentation of projects, pieces, or completed spaces, but the translation into image and text of the pace of things — of listening, of matter, of body, of space. A process that understands the project as something formed in layers, not in leaps.

the inhabited
house

December, 2025

The Sagittarius Residence reveals an architecture that gains strength in the meeting of routine and presence. The project takes shape at the intersection of precise gestures — generous circulation, light aligned with surfaces, the carpentry that structures the space naturally — and the daily life of those who inhabit it.

The Sagitarius Residence reveals an architecture that grows stronger in the encounter between routine and presence. The project materialises in the interface between the precision of gestures - the wide circulation, the light aligned with the surfaces, the woodwork that structures the space naturally - and the routine of those who dwell there.

What remains when the form transforms

What
remains when form transforms

November, 2025

Not by chance, furniture design does not arise from the need to fill space, but to understand it. To perceive weight, touch, temperature — and translate them into form. Each piece emerges as an extension of architecture, part of the same line of thought that moves across scales: from the body to the home, from structure to the detail.

At erriá, furniture design does not arise from a need to fill the space, but to understand it. To perceive the weight, the touch, the temperature, and translate them into form. Each piece is born as an extension of architecture, as part of the same thought that crosses scales: from the body to the house, from the structure to the detail.

At erriá, planning a space is not limited to proportions and layout. It begins by understanding space in transition — observing how matter organises itself, how it moves through the void, and how detail antecipates what is yet to come.

It is not only about following a construction process, but about allowing oneself to experience spatiality — whether at a design fair, in museums, or in exhibitions — as a way of thinking about architecture beyond the project.

At erriá, planning a space is not limited to proportions and schedules: it is about finding the space in transition - observing how matter organises itself, how light traverses the void, and how detail heralds the life to come. Just like monitoring a construction site, allowing oneself to experience new spatialities, whether at a design fair, in museums, or in exhibitions, becomes a way of thinking about architecture beyond the project itself.

Body
and Home

September, 2025

Perhaps the most intimate aspect of a project lies in what it holds without announcing: the time of pause, the subtle gesture, the ebb and flow between rooms, the precise distance between touch and support. When we understand space as an extension of the body, we seek not only ergonomics as a response, but presence as a premise.

Perhaps the most intimate feature of a project lies in what it shelters without announcing: the time of pause, the small gesture, the coming and going between rooms, the exact distance between touch and support. When we think of space as an extension of the body, we do not seek merely ergonomics as an answer, but presence as a premise.

the project
starts with the
meeting

August, 2025

A project is born at the moment when gazes and words meet.
It is in this encounter — the first stage of the design process — that ways of living, pauses, and movements of everyday life are translated into the built space.
Through attentive listening, erriá reveals everyday gestures that, over time, become ways of living: coffee taken in the same armchair,
light moving across the window, the table that becomes a place for conversation and work.

It is in this encounter - the first stage of the project process - that ways of living, pauses and movements (of daily life) are translated into the built space.    

Attentive listening to the erriá reveals daily gestures that, over time, are transformed into living rituals: the coffee that takes place in the same armchair,
the light that passes through the window, the table that becomes a place for conversation and work.

The detail that stitches the story together

July 2025

We understand that sensitive choices are not resolved at the end of a project. They are present from the very beginning. Each one carries the weight of a narrative. The door handle that feels substanital in the hand. The grain of the wood that subtly echoes across different pieces. The light fixture that integrates into the panel. It is these decisions — often minimal — that allow a space to truly belong to those who inhabit it.

We understand that sensitive choices are not resolved at the end of a project. They exist from the very beginning. Each choice carries the power of a narrative. The door handle that feels heavy in the hand. The cut of the wood that is subtly repeated in other furniture. The lamp that integrates into the panel. It is these decisions (sometimes minimal) that make the space belong to those who inhabit it.

meet the new erriá

June, 2025

Erria has always moved between scales — from architecture to object. But it became clear that it was time to align what we expressed outwardly with the precision of what was already happening within. There was a lack of clarity in how we communicated. Our way of representing ourselves no longer reflected our journey. The areas of action had become diluted. The content, fragmented.

get inspired by our manifesto

June, 2025

Erriá stems from an enduring curiosity about the world of architecture and design. It takes shape through a contemporary, forward-thinking approach. In a constant search for materials and technologies, ideas are translated into tangible structures. The work unfolds across scales — from architecture to furniture — where experience remains continuous.

The erriá is born from attentive listening. From those who live the space, the rhythm of inhabiting, the silences, time and that which manifests between the lines of daily life. Our work spans different scales, but stems from the same intention: how to make space a place of permanence?
