Interviews

- Hi
== - Thank you for appearing on our show. First let me ask you about your studies. Where did you study? You started in Venezuela, right? ==

- It was a pretty nice job because you always had something to do, designing squares and building roads. I had fun.
== - And then you started Ecotect Design? Why did you call it Ecotect Design? == ==- Yeah, I started Ecotect Design after 2 years working at the Chacao City Hall, and I called it that way because the firm is inspired in the environment and is based on ecologic ideas. ==

- And what projects have you done?
==- We reconstructed the Alfredo Sadel Square and we have made different Urbanizations in Caracas. We also built the Torre Empresarial de Chacao. ==

- What about the future? What plans do you have?
==- In the future I want to take some risks and start to get involved in the Dynamic Architecture and interactive spaces. In this last project we are working with different professionals like Psychologist, sound engineers, architects and urban planners. == == - What do you think is the biggest problem facing Venezuelan architecture? ==

- Venezuela is a poor country and it is difficult to invest in the architecture.
