Excellence
WE ARE
And we go beyond that.
We are FACES Engineering.
We design structures and façades where technology is never an end in itself, but a tool for vision.
Our work takes shape at the point of balance between sky and ground: between the vertical ambition of buildings and the solidity that anchors them to their urban and environmental context.
Our identity is also expressed through the colours we choose.
Blue evokes the skyline and an upward gaze, imagining new possibilities for cities.
Brown represents the earth, materiality, and the relationship with the ground.
Grey embodies structure: what is often unseen, yet essential to support and connect everything.
Our graphic mark is itself a statement of method.
The fold in the C of FACES breaks symmetry to reveal the complexity hidden behind light, harmonious forms, made possible through design and experience.
We are a solid team of engineers and professionals, capable of translating requirements and constraints into reliable solutions. We transform complexity into maintainable constructions and real buildings, destined to become recognisable references in the urban landscape and city skyline. Behind every apparent simplicity lies method, experience, and a deep technical culture.
Mission
We collaborate with those who envision the architecture of the future to define the skeleton and the skin of buildings. We combine excellence in façade and structural engineering with an innovative and sustainable approach. Click to read more.
Engineering Tomorrow’s Architecture
Our Collaborative Approach
We work in partnership with those who envision the architecture of the future, assisting in the definition of both the structural framework and the façade of buildings. By combining expertise in façade and structural engineering, we deliver innovative and sustainable solutions.
Our Mission
Our mission is to serve as the technical arm for visionary clients and designers who aspire to shape the built environment of tomorrow. By working closely with those who push the boundaries of architectural design, we translate ambitious concepts into robust structural systems and high-performance building envelopes.
Ambition to Reality
Rather than simply addressing engineering challenges, we interpret the aspirations of design and convert them into technical solutions. This approach ensures that buildings come to life, interact with their context, fulfil functional needs, and anticipate the environmental demands of the future.
Innovative and Rigorous Engineering
Our philosophy fuses rigorous engineering principles with a spirit of innovation. We combine advanced structural know-how with comprehensive façade engineering expertise, treating each building as a complex organism in which the structure and façade must work harmoniously together.
Optimising Building Performance
Through this holistic perspective, we maximise the performance of buildings, balancing structural strength, energy efficiency, indoor comfort, and the expression of architectural intent.
Sustainability at Every Stage
We view every project as a chance to innovate responsibly. Sustainability guides our decisions at every phase: from advising on material selection and conducting life-cycle assessments to developing strategies for energy efficiency and minimising environmental impact.
Building for the Future
We aim to advance an architecture that not only addresses current requirements but also honours the needs of future generations. We demonstrate that technical excellence and environmental stewardship are not mutually exclusive, but rather, must evolve together.
Vision
We aim to become a global reference partner for the engineering of complex structures and building envelopes, by building a network of strategic partnerships that drive innovation in the construction industry through technologically advanced solutions that harmonise performance, aesthetics, and environmental responsibility.

We envision a future in which FACES Engineering is the trusted technical reference for architects and developers seeking a reliable and competent partner, capable of delivering robust engineering solutions even for the most ambitious architectural projects. We see our role growing as an international benchmark for complex structural engineering and high-performance façade systems.
Our objective is to build a reputation grounded in tangible results, precision in calculations, and the ability to transform design complexity into buildable and certified construction systems. We aim to develop long-term relationships with architectural practices, general contractors, and international developers, becoming their engineer of choice for projects requiring specialist expertise.
We seek to foster a stable network of collaborations with selected partners, including qualified façade system manufacturers, certified material suppliers, and accredited testing laboratories, enabling us to deliver technically validated and guaranteed solutions. We do not pursue experimentation for its own sake; instead, we adopt a proactive approach that builds on established technologies and current regulations, proposing optimisations and improvements that are measurable, verifiable, and fully documented.
We strive to demonstrate that technical rigour, architectural quality, and environmental efficiency are fully compatible within a structured and methodical design process. Our vision embraces buildings conceived through life-cycle thinking, where every technical decision is assessed for its overall impact and long-term reliability.
For us, it is essential to be recognised as the technical partner that ensures safety and feasibility even in the most challenging projects. The partner design teams rely on when complex geometries must be translated into reliable structural systems, when façade performance must be optimised within budget, schedule constraints, and at a time when thorough verifications and technical documentation are required.
We want our name to stand for solid engineering expertise, reliable processes, and pragmatic problem-solving, building a reputation based on successfully delivered projects, respected timelines, and guaranteed performance.
