A super professional architecture studio with very good taste. They were in charge of the “Botànic 2.0” project, which is already uploaded on their website. They work in a very methodical way, always making life easy for the client regardless of the complexity of the project. Communication is excellent, and they pay close attention to quality and execution times. Highly recommended.

Piano Piano is an architecture studio with fresh and beautiful ideas. ❤️
Inés Fuertes

It was a great decision to contact them to renovate our house. From the very beginning, the project won us over with its personality and originality. We felt very supported throughout the process, and whenever a problem came up, they took care of finding a quick and effective solution. A friendly and easy-going treatment. We would work with them again without a doubt.

We were certain about who was going to carry out the full renovation of our house. From the very first meeting—the way they approached the project, their ideas, how the work was developed and executed—everything went smoothly, with them always on top of every detail. … Now we have a truly unique herringbone-style home!
Isabel Sanahuja Franch

At home we are very happy to have relied on them for a partial renovation. They not only provided solutions to our needs but also managed to create a beautiful, bright space for us. They are very professional and approachable, guiding you throughout the entire process and supervising the work while taking care of every detail.
In addition, they are up to date with the latest trends but give each home a personal and unique touch. You know they will never design two houses alike, yet all of them turn out beautiful.
A 10 out of 10.

I had the pleasure of working with the Piano Piano team on the design of my house, “De la Plaça al Palau,” and I couldn’t be happier with the result. From the very beginning, they were incredibly committed to the project, showing great professionalism and passion for their work.
What impressed me most was their ability to provide creative solutions to every challenge that arose throughout the process. They are a resourceful team that knows how to adapt and bring innovative ideas, always keeping our needs and wishes in mind.
The process was very smooth, with an attention to detail that exceeded my expectations. From the initial concept to the final execution, each phase was carefully planned and carried out with great care.
Without a doubt, I would recommend Piano Piano to anyone looking for an architecture studio that combines creativity, problem-solving skills, and absolute commitment to the project. I’m very happy with my new home and grateful for all the work and dedication they put into making it a reality.

María and María have been very professional from the very beginning with our full renovation project (La Retícula Salpicada). We met as many times as needed during the design phase, and they took care of all the paperwork. In the end, the apartment turned out fantastic both aesthetically and functionally.
José Luis Alonso Ara

The best thing about trusting María and María is precisely that: being able to trust. Being able to establish a smooth dialogue in such a stressful situation as a renovation is without a doubt one of their strongest points. We embraced their idea of the “Octógono de Pelayo,” and it has turned out wonderfully.

We architects

Hello! We are Maria Donnini and Maria Grifo, the architects who founded Piano Piano, our studio in Valencia in 2016.

We work on new-build projects, renovations, and rehabilitations of public and private spaces, mostly focused on the residential field, as well as interventions in the landscape and the city.

In our projects, we manage scale in its different dimensions: as a piece that leaves a mark on the context in which it is located, while paying special attention to construction details, crafted down to the millimeter.

We accompany our clients throughout the entire design process, taking their needs and wishes into account. We carefully and thoughtfully define each space and oversee the construction to ensure that the final result faithfully reflects the design and the expectations of those who place their trust in our work.
