Born of decades of accumulated knowledge in the study and enhancement of cultural heritage, Obliq extends this outlook to territory, memory and communities, developing projects in historical research, heritage inventory and safeguarding, cultural impact studies, consultancy, programming and publishing, preferably within businesses or public institutions. As its motto suggests — a cultural watchtower — it sets out to be an attentive lookout: observing, from its own oblique angle, what others overlook, identifying what deserves to be preserved, and giving it form, meaning and a future, with contemporary relevance, scientific rigour, and sensitivity towards people and places.
