We are an international architecture and design studio led by Brazilian architect Maria Paz de Moura Castro and German architect Mark Mueckenheim; bringing together two award-winning studios under one collaborative vision. With offices in the San Francisco Bay Area, Belo Horizonte, and Düsseldorf, our work bridges cultures and continents.

PMCKM specializes in residential and cultural projects, delivering architecture that is both contextually grounded and conceptually bold. Our collaborative, client-focused approach combines the thoroughness of German engineering and efficiency, Brazilian elegance, and contemporary design thinking to create meaningful spaces of lasting value.

We create thoughtful, high-quality architecture and we are passionate about transforming ideas into buildings and spaces that inspire, connect, and elevate.
