About Me
I am a Mid-level bilingual architect with well-rounded design and technical abilities from over 5 years participating in diverse project types such as: Residential, Commercial, Educational, Warehouse, and Health Facilities.
After graduating from the University of Liverpool in the UK I've worked on projects around the world. Additionally, I've taken part in international and local architecture competitions which explore the future of sustainable residential spaces, kinetic interior design, and institutional buildings. Some of these have been awarded, built, and gotten honourable mentions.
Working on international projects has not only built a comprehensive knowledge on design technologies and building policies, but also a broad design vision and a big sense of adaptability to achieve team-oriented success.

2022
As executive architects we were appointed to consider the client objectives as well as local and national planning policy to design a complete new built mixed used Optician, Dental Practice, and residential units onto an empty, derelict residential site in the quiet area of Little Hulton in Grater Manchester.
MY ROLE: Architectural Designer.
-Development of the essential concepts and ideas leading to the design of the Dental Practice, Opticians, and Residen tial Units.
Production of concept presentation document with reference to imagery, products, materials, 3D views, layouts and diagrams.
-Preparation of Design and Access Statement and coordinate consultant drawings in preparation for a planning application in the United Kingdom.
-Preparation of detailed scale drawings and specifications for regulatory approv als.
-Preparation of architectural drawings, submissions and presentations.
1. PLOT
The building plot is a vacant land located along Cleggs Lane and Kestrel Avenue, surrounded by green areas and a predominately residential area.
2. ACCESS + VIEWS
The building volume is divided and pushed inwards, creating a natural way in from the main access road (Cleggs Lane).
3. ROOF-SCAPE
The building will reflect the neighbouring building's sloped roofs in order to blend with the surrounding architectural character.
4. BALCONY FEATURE
By having an external bolt-on to the front an rear of the façade it increases the residents amenities space. This will increase their quality of life by creating a connection to green spaces
The site occupies an empty land on Kestrel Avenue, and is surrounded by a predominately residential area, characterised by older two storey terraced dwellings.
Little Hulton is an area of the city of Salford in the Northeast of Manchester with a clear residential dominance, followed by a significant amount of light industrial warehouses. The amount of retail and Heath facilities are small and reduced.
Since the site is characterized by terraced houses, offering flats would contribute towards the provision of a balanced mix of dwellings within the local area in terms of type and size. Therefore, attracting a broader range of households.
Additionally, the suggested Dental Practice and Opticians facilities facing Cleggs Lane intend to create a physical link with the neighbouring Medical Services related facilities.

One of Guyana’s leading suppliers of heavy-duty machinery and equipment, MACORP, will be constructing a mega complex in Georgetown, Guyana.
The project consists of 7 buildings which include: 5 warehouses, 1 main Office building and an educational centre.
MY ROLE: Architectural Designer.
-Development of the essential concepts and ideas leading to the design of the Offices, and overall façades.
-In-depth analysis of the brief, under standing the project limitations leading to a clear design strategy (I was in charge for both Office and Learning Centre)
-Preparation of architectural drawings, submissions and presentations.
-Specifying products and materials, and schedules for tender and construction using BIM Platforms (mainly REVIT). -Defined the ambience, colour schemes, materials and specifications, including the furniture design chosen. -Furniture Design for Offices.
The Office building is the main -and more complex- building in the entire complex, and it was designed to offer a wide variety of room types and flexible spaces to sup port different work styles and uses. This, in order to make the workplace more discoverable and organic.

Render done using Enscape.
The Façade look corresponds to a warm-weather warehouse aesthetic that combines reinforced concrete, screen metal façades, and a tropical landscape design that binds the buildings together.
The Office building as the main feature of the complex needed to be highly bespoke and detailed whilst being exciting. The design proposal intends to give a fresh -yet grand- look to CATERPILLAR’s brand image by adopting the modern open office layout and sculptural elements like the central asymmetric stairs.
The Office building displays a double height lobby which faces a steel stair which connects the now-contiguous floors enabling greater staff interaction whilst activating the centrally located meeting and social spaces.

COLOMBIAN AIR FORCE PREMISES
Private Competition-Winners
Bogotá, Colombia
Approximate Area: 10,900 m2.
2020
The Citadela as our proposal for the new Colombian Air-force is an architectural complex with the following design pillars: radial geometry, strength, and hierarchy.
Citadella (Italy) was a city founded in 1220 as a military post in Padua, and just like our proposal, it’s a model of the dynamics between union and defence, which are evidence of the essential role of architecture in the military discipline.
1. Circle:
Concentric design to give a sense of unity and defence.
2. Radial Formation:
Volume is opened up in the centre, forming the main plaza.
plaza
3. Programmatic Division:
The volume is divided into three: administrative area, auditorium, and services.
4. Materiality and Slope:
Building’s height is defined by their function forming an slope indicating hierarchy.
5. Double Membrane:
Double skin is added in order to balance out the transparen cy of the buildings.
Within our group of two I was in charge of the concept design. This included the definition of the architectural volumes, diagrams, the general spatial layout and choosing the external materiality of the project.

KINETIC GALLERY
Competition- Winners (built)
Bogotá, Colombia
Approximate Area: 125 m2
2019 Colombo American Institute invited the participants to design a gallery space for the new campus.
The proposed concept consisted of a kinetic gallery in which exposition panels were mobile, opening several possibilities for spatial configurations. The proposal was selected and built to inaugurate the brand new institutes campus, and now is holding a variety of events and expositions.
1. Fragmentation: The standard galler y wall/panell is broken down to ver tical elements.
2. M obility : A rail is located on top in o rder to allow the move ment o f the ver tical wall fragments. L ocking system i s located in the bottom.
Sliding panels
Art Galleries panels define the way an exposition goes, and many times it limits it by being so rigid. The de-fragmentation of a gallery panel results in diverse possi bilities of dynamic and flexible spaces for any show or exhibitions that may be held.
Within our group of two I was in charge of the concept design. This included the definition of the architectural volumes, diagrams, the general spatial layout and material detailing.
Rail system
3. Variable P ermeability : The wall fragments allow a variety of arrangements, which results in spaces with different levels of permeability between them
Circulation,entries
Partial Permeability
Wall
CONFIGURATIONS:
1. The first configuration displays a space of 8x7.5 m. This creates a large gallery enclosure adjacent to a lateral gallery and circulation area
2.The second configuration contains two gal leries of 4x5m. This creates a pair of intimate spaces which attain equal connection to a central corridor.
3.The third configuration displays an open layout where divisions have been removed - this promotes interaction in the gallery between users , specially for talk-shows or events.
