LAGO Architects in Sotogrande: Redefining Modern Mediterranean Luxury

At Open Frontiers, we believe luxury real estate should do more than impress, it should inspire. That’s why we’re proud to work with LAGO Architects, the internationally acclaimed studio led by Maximiliano Lago. With projects now shaping the landscape of Sotogrande Costa and La Reserva, LAGO is setting a new standard for refined Mediterranean living.

Founded in 2007, LAGO Architects is an international architecture and interior design studio with offices in Spain, Buenos Aires, and Miami. Their signature style blends minimalist geometry with natural textures, light-filled interiors, and a timeless aesthetic.

From beachfront villas to modernist retreats in the hills of Sotogrande, LAGO homes are more than just beautiful, they are emotionally intelligent spaces designed for real life.

Maximiliano Lago, the founder and creative force behind LAGO Architects, was trained in architecture and design in Buenos Aires, a city known for its blend of European elegance and Latin American creativity.

With over 20 years of experience across three continents, Max brings a human-centered approach to Mediterranean modernism, always striving to balance geometry and emotion. His ability to shape spaces that are both poetic and practical has earned him an international reputation for thoughtful design that respects nature, light, and lifestyle.

“Architecture is not just form—it’s rhythm, movement, and how you feel walking through the space.”
— Max Lago

LAGO Architects’ work is deeply influenced by principles of:

• Contemporary minimalism, free from excess but full of emotion
  
• Natural materials like wood, stone, and concrete used with restraint
  
• Bioclimatic awareness, using natural light, airflow, and orientation as tools
  
• Spatial harmony, ensuring every space has a purpose and a feeling
  

Their goal is always the same: to make life better through architecture, not louder, but quieter. Not more, but better.

In coastal destinations like Sotogrande, this philosophy resonates deeply with international buyers seeking calm, elegant spaces where architecture complements the natural beauty of Andalusia.
