Fernando Castañón

He received a master degree in design and theory of architecture from Universidad Politecnica de Catalunya, ETSAB (2001). He worked in Monteverde Arquitectos studio in Barcelona (2002). His foreign experience allowed him to print a diverse point of view to his professional activities which he combined with teaching.
We use the best technology, resources and tools to satisfy our clients needs. We design spaces with the highest quality, efficiency and integration of architecture to the day to day activities. In every project we achieve the expected results combining experience and innovation, contributing with solutions and taking risks.
As experts in the use of the space our main goal is to maximize its value. With tools such as quick delivery, efficiency and high-tech resources we always search for the best quality in the space requested by the client.
The history of a great project is usually the history of a great client, one who is willing to use architecture and assume the risks involved in good ideas. Architecture blurs the boundaries between public and private, interior and exterior; changing frontiers and extending the limits. Things do not take place isolated, just like nature, one event triggers another. Architecture based on nature is more real to the world we live in.
