What I propose

Three things I can take off your desk.

01

3D modeling and photoreal visualization

I model the space and produce client-facing views that let people see the scheme before it exists — materials, light and furniture in place. SketchUp, Rhino, V-Ray, D5. Presentation boards and layouts included, not treated as an afterthought.

02

Custom furniture and millwork

Built-ins, headboards, banquettes, casegoods, vanities. I design the piece, model it, render it for client approval, and detail it for the shop — dimensions, joinery, materials, finishes. Trained in descriptive geometry and digital fabrication, so the drawing holds up on the shop floor.

03

Bilingual technical coordination

I specify directly with millworkers, upholsterers, metal shops and installers in Spanish or English, with the technical drawing in hand. The person who designed the piece is the person explaining it to the shop.

Mobilia, Perth AU · 2024 · Residential interior

A living room built around a record collection. Rather than treating the music as storage, the collection becomes the room's main wall — a curated grid that sets the graphic key for everything else.

The same living room by day: low brown sectional, window seat and a niche of framed records. A figure crossing the living room in motion blur, the record wall behind.

The hand that weaves. The machine that cuts. The form that remembers. Craft, fabrication and memory in the same room — and a room becomes interesting when the three refuse to match.

Where the value is

Custom pieces are where a project is won — and where it leaks.

In high-end residential, the custom work carries the project: the built-in, the headboard, the vanity, the joinery nobody else can buy. It is also where money and time disappear. A piece is designed in one language and built in another, and the gap between the two is filled informally — a profile misread, a grain run the wrong way, a tolerance nobody confirmed. It surfaces on installation day.

I close that gap. I design the piece, draw it properly, and speak with the shop in the language the shop actually works in. In the Bay Area, most of the millwork, upholstery, stone and finish trades run on Spanish. That is not a cultural note; it is where the schedule lives.

The person who drew the piece is the person standing in the shop explaining it.

My background is spatial: interiors, exhibition design and scenography, with a master's in design and formal training in morphology and digital fabrication. Years with interno.co in Medellín and Mobilia in Perth, Australia, were spent on restaurants, cafés and bars — demanding clients, tight budgets, and opening dates that do not move.

Specification is a drawing plus a conversation.
