JPA ARCHITECTS

We can refer to the architecture and the more complex art. That art that transcends the purely aesthetic and involves both the environment as the human being, their activities and their needs. In addition, it must respond to a structural and constructive logic immersed in a reality and particular environment in each architectural project. “ José Pablo Acuña Lett.
