Aaltro
About

An editorial and identity house — another way of looking at space.

Aaltro stems from an interest in other ways of reading and experiencing space. It begins in architecture but moves beyond it — shifting the focus from the object to the experience, from form to perception, and from result to process.

The book is where it often starts: a space for editorial experimentation rather than a fixed format, each publication finding its own scale, materiality and structure.

Some collaborations remain books. Others grow into identity systems, objects and long-term partnerships. The medium changes, the editorial approach remains the same.

Across everything, Aaltro is a continuous gesture — un altro modo — of observing, listening and thinking about space. It was founded by the architectural photographer Pedro Cardigo.

Selected collaborations

Aaltro develops collaborations with brands and institutions through photography, creative direction, curation and editorial work — when these projects resonate with its research on space, matter and sensory experience.
