“
Beautiful buildings are more than scientific. They are true organisms, spiritually conceived; works of art, using the best technology by inspiration rather than the idiosyncrasies of mere taste or any averaging by the committee mind.

I am a registered and licensed architect based in Manila. I bring over 7 years of experience in the design and construction industry. I’ve had the opportunity to be part on projects of various scales and types that made me a strong believer that design matters, and that architecture should enrich the lives of its users and its environment.
