Collection: Alfonso Mila

Both born in 1924, Federico Correa and Alfonso Milá were schoolmates and went on to attend the same university. They both received their doctorates in architecture from the University of Barcelona and they established their architectural studio in 1953, interweaving their friendship with a professional partnership. Their names soon became inseparable. The studio began with a focus on decoration and single-family homes, gradually developing larger projects such as offices, residences, or industrial factories. They successfully overcame several challenges within the fields of architecture, interior design and industrial design. In addition, both architects became dedicated lecturers, with an emphasis on the internationalisation of Barcelona and Spain s distinguishing features in the world of design. They taught at renowned design schools in Barcelona, such as ETSAB and EINA.
