PALOUIO
Think, design and build.
We design and build for cities — and we measure whether it worked.
A design and innovation practice across Buenos Aires and Boise, working on architecture, urban design, mobility and developments — with an instrument of our own for reading public space.

Urban Biometric
The methodMost urban data tells a city how much a public space was used. Urban Biometric tells it what that space is capable of — and what it lacks.
A hostile street records little foot traffic, and little foot traffic reads as little demand. Measuring capacity separately breaks that loop, and the gap between the two is the finding.
