A Way of Thinking
PHILOSOPHY
The Places We Inhabit
City, Colony, House and Body: these are the spaces where we live and develop, both collectively and individually. The City is a diverse organism, a place where infinite needs and desires converge. The Colony , closer to home, reflects our affinities and desires. The House becomes our microcosm, an intimate refuge where some of the most important moments of our life happen. The Body , our connection with this world, with everything that surrounds us, allowing us to feel and experience every emotion that life and architecture offer us.
In the first, we have little or no control over what happens, in the second, we come together to be able to say the best as a collective, but in the last two, as individuals, we have the power to change our lives with the right decisions and the right guidance.
The House, our personal place; The Office, our place to grow; The Park, our place to enjoy. No matter what it is called or what it is, there will always be a space to create unrepeatable moments. We all deserve that space to be the best, the most beautiful, the most welcoming, the most colorful or the most elegant. As Architects, we must know and understand people before Designing, we are individuals with unique and different needs, we are also a family with group needs. We are many and, at the same time, one.
At Punto 19, people come first. Architecture, without them, would be an empty shell, devoid of meaning and emotions. People and places create a perfect symbiosis; we take pride in designing spaces that frame the most significant moments of life.
An architect with degrees in Interior Design and 21st Century Contemporary Art, his career is marked by versatility. Throughout his career, he has ventured into various disciplines such as painting, sculpture and furniture design, continually challenging traditional archetypes and exploring new forms of expression in each project.
Prior to founding Punto 19, he has worked at both nationally and internationally recognized architectural firms. During this time, he developed a deep understanding of architectural design as a process of constant metamorphosis. His approach is based on the belief that architecture is not a static discipline, but a dynamic reflection of life. As our needs and preferences evolve, so does design, continually adapting and redefining itself.
Professionally, he is a strong advocate of integrating new technologies into the creative process. For him, the digital age is not just a tool, but an opportunity to create a connection between the global and the local, transforming new developments into a form of modern craftsmanship. With an inclusive vision, he has set out to demystify the idea that architecture is inaccessible or exclusive. He firmly believes that quality design should not be reserved for large projects or high budgets, but should improve the lives of all people and their environment, regardless of the resources available.

SOFIA GARZA
What we design would not be possible without the invaluable support of an exceptional team. Behind every successful project, a group of dedicated professionals works tirelessly to turn our ideas into tangible realities. From the bricklayers who erect the structures with precision, to the plumbers who ensure everything runs smoothly, each team member brings their expertise and specialized knowledge.
Carpenters, blacksmiths and craftsmen also play a key role, shaping materials and adding unique details that transform spaces. These professionals, who often remain out of the spotlight, are the pillars of each project.
Their ability to collaborate and overcome challenges is what allows us to materialize our visions. Without their commitment and constant effort, our designs would not be able to transcend from paper to reality. Each project we deliver is the result of a collective effort, where every detail is executed with passion and dedication to create spaces that impact and improve people's lives.
