Baggio Schiavon Arquitetura

What Baggio Schiavon Arquitetura does

Baggio Schiavon Arquitetura (BSA) is a privately-held Brazilian architecture firm founded in 1982 by architects Manuel Baggio and Flavio Schiavon, headquartered in Curitiba, Paraná, with a secondary office in New York. The firm provides commissioned architectural design services across residential (contemporary and classic), commercial, multi-use, hospitality, healthcare, and horizontal condominium / master plan segments, serving Brazilian real estate developers (incorporadoras) and property owners. Its portfolio of 100+ projects includes the world's first Tonino Lamborghini Residences in Balneário Camboriú (with Embraed), the LEED Homes Award 2021-winning LLUM project (with Laguna), and the first WELL Platinum-certified Brazilian residential project (Pinah).

BSA's underlying technology stack centers on BIM (Building Information Modeling) adopted firm-wide since 2017, integrated with AI-assisted design tools for scenario prediction, mobility analysis, and climate impact mitigation. The firm pursues green building certifications (LEED, GBC, WELL, Aqua) as a core differentiator and has accumulated multiple LEED Platinum, LEED Gold, GBC Platinum, and WELL Platinum credentials across its project portfolio. Architectural capabilities include dynamic facade engineering, biophilic design, and wellness-oriented interior environments.

The business model is project-based professional services: fees are negotiated per commission based on scope, building type, square footage, and complexity, with no public pricing tiers. GTM is B2B enterprise field sales — direct relationships with tier-1 developers (Laguna, A.Yoshii, Embraed, Cyrela, Nóster, Invespark, among others) and direct commissions for high-end residential buyers. Marketing is conducted primarily through the corporate website, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube, and editorial blog content, with brand-building reinforced by cultural exhibitions (Museu Oscar Niemeyer, 2022) and book publication. The firm employs 39 people and operates across multiple Brazilian states plus a North American foothold via its New York office.
