Cíclica [ SPACE · COMMUNITY · ECOLOGY ]

Cíclica works towards environmental balance and social equity by systemically integrating three domains: architecture, community and environment. Bringing these three together is essential to respond to today’s challenges: climate change, the resource crisis, energy poverty and social exclusion in cities.

Drawing on more than ten years of applied research and work with public administrations, from the building to the territory, Cíclica develops knowledge, strategies, hands-on support and digital tools to accelerate the transformation of the building stock.

From this work comes MATRIU · Housing Intelligence, the digital platform that helps understand the residential stock, plan its renovation and put it into action: matriu.io
