Peruvian Architect · Canada, building where
landscape and structure meet.
Principle
“Form follows Function.”
— Louis H. Sullivan
A decade of residential, cultural and civic work across Peru, grounded in clarity of plan, honest materials and a quiet dialogue with the terrain.
A generous family retreat carved into a rock face, opening onto the valley through a full-height glass core framed in corten steel.
A compact two-storey house of stacked volumes, board-formed concrete and timber, organised around a double-height library.
A crisp interplay of white render, exposed concrete and wood, wrapped around a sunken lounge and a full basement of leisure spaces.
A graduate thesis: assisted-living housing woven with workshops, a health station and public gardens for the elderly of San Juan de Lurigancho.
A daylit multi-sport arena under a folded steel roof: basketball, futsal, volleyball and table tennis beneath a translucent clerestory. Second place, private competition.
A tight seaside plot resolved as a stacked white volume with a slatted timber brise-soleil and a rooftop terrace open to the Pacific.
A Peruvian-licensed architect now based in Canada, with over a decade of practice spanning private residences, a civic thesis for the elderly and competition work. Trained at Universidad Ricardo Palma with a diploma in interior design, Miguel designs from the plan outward, letting function set the form.
