OAM - Office of Architecture in Mallorca

Architecture and Planning

Overview

OAM - Office of Architecture in Mallorca - is a young office of architecture and design based in Manacor, founded by Oliver brothers Biel and Toni. We are committed to an architecture that recognizes the wisdom of tradition while evolves with the exploration of new concepts and strategies to respond to contemporary needs, with the ultimate goal of improving people's lives. We are focused on Mediterranean architecture, its tradition and common sense, transmitted from generation to generation by local people. Thus, we aim to create comfortable spaces, making use of local resources and natural materials, which are pleasant to the senses and age well over time. Functionality, aesthetics, economy and sustainability are basic concepts we explore in our projects along with architecture integration in the landscape. Toni Oliver (1991) Partner, has worked for the largest international and national architecture firms before founding OAM, such as Foster + Partners (London), BAAS Arquitectura and Josep Ferrando (Barcelona) or TEd'A and Esteva i Esteva (Mallorca) among others. Biel Oliver (1992) Partner, has accumulated several years of experience in sustainable architecture and high energy efficiency. Moreover, he has acquired professional skills in project management working for important Real Estate development companies (Catalunya) and interior design (Monterrey Institute of Technology).
