Architect

Graduated in Architecture from Lusiada University at Lisbon, Portugal in 2006 and became a Registrered Architect with the Portuguese Architect Association. (Ordem dos Arquitectos N. 16494)

Started my professional pathway in Lagos, Portugal where I worked for 5 years at VLA office where I have done housing and commercial projects. I also had experience on public spaces design with the Urb Concept  an urban furniture brand made out of natural stone from Monchique, Algarve.

Moved to New Zealand in 2013 where I acquired 10 years experience on different architecture offices. Worked on big architecture offices and with the best consultants of the country. This gave me experience in running large and complex projects, such as bussiness parks, health clinic, car parks, townhouses or just single family houses.

Returned to Portugal in 2022 and opened my own pratice of architecture in Loulé. Here I can find my roots and connect with my own culture. I want to bring my knowledge and to design beautiful buildings for the Algarve my home Region.

What do we do

Using BIM

BIM - Building Information Model

BIM is a software technology that uses 3 dimensional visualization, during the project process we model the building in 3D which allows us to see every element that makes part of the construction.

It's an essential tool to respond to complexity and to avoid clashing of services during construction. It also helps the client to see the internal espaces by walking inside and understanding the external shape of the proposal.
