My name is JUAN FRANCISCO URÍA VALLEJO, I am a 25 year-old Ecuadorian young architect. I have a degree in architecture from Universidad San Francisco de Quito and a Master in Design from University of Miami.
I am passionate about being in constant study of architecture. I have had the opportunity to live in three different cities; Quito, Whitehall (MI), Miami and Barcelona. This has given me the ability to understand architecture in different ways. I am interested in housing architecture and how humans can inhabit a place. During the last few years I have designed educational and professional projects for housing, offices, art and urban planning. Other passions that I exercise other than architecture are photography and art through watercolors, ceramics and sculpture.
