HERREROS ARQUITECTOS es una estructura de diferentes personas que funciona en régimen colaborativo en el verdadero sentido de la palabra. Bajo la dirección de Juan Herreros, el equipo de arquitectos se despliega como cabezas emergentes de grupos de trabajo que implican a gente de dentro y fuera de la oficina. Como esta organización, cada proyecto arranca con el establecimiento de un equipo específico que incorpora desde el primer momento a los expertos necesarios en una conversación permanente.

La plataforma operativa del estudio, comparte las tres actividades simultáneas de su director -profesional, educativa, investigativa- y se prolonga sin fisuras en el grupo en continuo crecimiento de consultores y colaboradores que incluyen todos los campos del conocimiento técnico aplicado así como ingeniería ambiental, paisajismo y recursos culturales y teóricos.
