Back in 2011, I sat in my cramped apartment looking at another cookie-cutter condo tower going up across the street. That's when it hit me—why does everything look the same? Why can't buildings actually talk to their neighborhoods, their environment, their people?
So Selvaron Quintal Architecture was born out of pure frustration with the status quo. We're not here to pump out identical boxes. We're here to create spaces that actually make sense for how people live today, not how some textbook says they should.
Over the years, we've grown from a solo operation to a tight-knit team of designers, engineers, and problem-solvers who genuinely give a damn about what we build. Every project's a chance to prove that architecture can be smarter, greener, and yeah—more human.
Look, we're not gonna throw around fancy jargon about "paradigm shifts" or "holistic ecosystems." Here's what actually matters to us:
Not just slapping solar panels on stuff. We're talking about buildings that actually reduce their footprint from day one.
You know your needs better than we do. Our job's to translate that into something buildable, not impose our ego.
Sometimes the best answer's the simplest one. We're not here to overcomplicate things just to look clever.
What works now should work in 20 years. We design for longevity, adaptability, and changing needs.
The folks who turn coffee and CAD files into actual buildings
Founder & Principal Architect
Started this whole thing because I couldn't stand seeing another soulless building go up. Still getting my hands dirty with every project—that's the only way I know how to work.
Senior Designer
The one who makes sure my wild ideas can actually be built. She's got an eye for detail that's honestly a bit scary, and she's saved our butts more times than I can count.
Sustainability Specialist
If it's not green enough, James'll let you know. He's passionate about making every project hit its sustainability targets without blowing the budget to pieces.
We don't usually brag, but here's what we've managed to pull off over the years...
