About us

M2ARQUITECTURA

M2ARQUITECTURA, a studio founded in Barcelona by Meritxell Lázaro Vilalta and Mischa Essletzbichler in 2001, combines two cultures and two working methodologies under the same philosophy: understanding real estate consultancy as a comprehensive support service. With a track record of more than 10 years, we defend our clients interests with transparency, as if they were our own.

Borderless communication, local management. We understand that trust is built through words. Therefore, we work fluidly in Catalan, Spanish, German, and English, facilitating direct and clear dialogue with both international clients and local administrations.
