OUR HISTORY
It was the passion of one of the founding partners that led to the birth of b-face in 2019.
Pedro Rodrigues started his professional career as a designer and it was his ambition, his drive to always learn more, his work ethic and his hard work that resulted in his growth as a professional. Pedro’s experience include a period in operations as a Project Manager and later as an Operations Director and, over the past years, in pre-construction as the Technical Director responsible for the design and engineering of several challenging and complex projects across the World. His vision of building facades and cladding systems led him to believe that it was possible to aim for improvement, by developing more efficient systems and by designing better performing façades, while still optimising project cost. It was then that Pedro realised that his work could in fact make a difference in façade design and engineering, contributing to a more sustainable horizon and making a difference to his costumers.
B-face stands for hard work, passion for challenges and meeting new and innovative goals without ever comprising quality, rigor and transparency.
