We Believe

in architecture's capacity to attend society's everyday problems and its ability to project the world we want to live in. At the same time, architecture has to address issues of adaptation and transformation in a constantly evolving society where people's lifestyles are continuously changing.

We believe in architecture as a manifestation of human aspirations grounded in a conscious effort to preserve our limited resources. These limitations of resource, economic or natural, apply not only to our clients but to our society as a whole. We believe that both good design and profitability should go by the hand. Good architecture is inherently ecological and can also be a tool for social change and economic growth. Our passion for what we do is greatly derived from architecture's ability to positively affect people's quality of life.

We believe architecture to be more than a practice or a profession. Architecture is also a vocation and discipline, where history, skills, theories, and innovation are intrinsic of the process. A vocation and discipline interacting with its evolving circumstances and surroundings.

We Design

spaces and environments in which people live and interact with one another, while at the same time promoting every user's discovery process of their surroundings.

We design by developing abstract ideas and transforming them into spatial formations. During this transformation process many considerations, like site, cultural and economic environment, client's programmatic needs and budget constraints, building techniques, marketing, branding, and other issues, have a baring effect in the form and the space. We aspire to create environments, buildings, or cities where design, technology, and finance work in unison, enabling an environment for innovation.

We design in a non-linear process, while complying with the standardized delivery process established by the profession. Problem and solution can emerge together with no definite direction of flow. We design with the understanding that architecture is also a visual art where buildings and spaces should speak for themselves, and with the hope that they may also serve and inspire their communities.

We design with the aspiration of providing our clients with the best architecture in Puerto Rico and the Caribbean Region.

We Build

as an intrinsic part of the design process. Building is the execution phase of the process. It is when theories, embodied in our contemporary architectural concepts and manifested through construction documents or plans, are tested. It is when building and construction innovation is also tested. Depending on the degree of complexity or size, the execution or construction process can be carried out by our sister construction company or by independent contractors in agreement with the client.

We build, not thinking of building as the conclusion of the design process, but yet as the threshold of a new phase where theories are truly tested over time, while the space is occupied by their users. It is when the discovery and interaction of users within an evolving environment happen. It is when society reacts to space by either accepting, rejecting, or transforming it.

We build because, in spite of how difficult it sometimes may be, we simply enjoy the process.
