Alejandro leads groups designing meaningfully placed, efficient, and user-tailored buildings. His work is characterized by the understanding and integration of all branches of knowledge to create highly efficient buildings determined by the needs of practical activities.

For Alejandro, every project begins with a deep understanding of the conditions of the construction site, the needs and other goals of the users. Based on this, the task is how to maximize the potential of the project with minimal impact on its environment.
