(*) Microarchitecture has been a beneficiary of the European Regional Development Fund whose objective is to improve the competitiveness of SMEs and thanks to which has initiated the Internationalization Plan with the aim of improving its competitive position abroad during the 2017 / 2018 year. For this, it has had the support of the XPANDE Program of the Chamber of Commerce of Barcelona. A way to make Europe.
microarquitectura SL was founded in the 1995 year in Barcelona, directing its activity to the design, construction and commercialization of urban furniture elements, especially kiosks and pergolas, always linked with the development of projects. The offer combines standard catalog products, project development and customized solutions.
Our most popular model, Habana is installed in a large number of municipalities internationally, approved by important municipalities and other public administration entities.
Singular signage or sculptural projects and the creation of urban furniture elements are usually carried out, among which the ADA series for beach equipment (shower, footbath, fountain, signage, bicycle rack and litter bin) or the AJC series of urban equipment (lighting, bench, planters, bollards and litter bin).
Since 2008, it has become the exclusive distributor for Spain, Portugal and France of Landscape Structures, the most prestigious North American children's play brand on the market. Later, the distribution of Team Tejbrant's Swedish marquees was incorporated, and later other collections such as Hriste's children's games.
From the combination of being a manufacturer of microarchitectual elements with the commercialization of complementary urban equipment of other brands, a new brand emerges at XNUMX, URBADIS , to provide the best service dedicated to the commercialization and installation of the widest range of urban equipment.
The URBADIS product catalogue currently comprises three divisions: MICROARQUITECTURA, URBAN (street furniture) and PLAY & SPORTS (children's games, fitness, etc.). These three divisions completely cover the entire range of products and work with the best brands. This allows URBADIS to offer the public administration and architects or private clients customized solutions for each case.
Its vocation for quality and design can be seen in each of its actions as well as in its active participation in associations of the prestige of ADI FAD or the European project 'Design For All'.
