We see architecture as something important that impacts peoples\u2019 lives. We assume our responsibility in its production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We understand that architecture is not just visual art. Nor is it just a means to generate financial gain. It is the architect\u2019s duty to cover all the edges. One of these is to ensure the health and safety of its inhabitants. But, recognizing that this cannot exist without the economic performance of the investor. We cannot conceive architecture without all its essential factors. There is not good architecture without material precision, environmental care, or sensory enjoyment. Likewise, architecture must be a concrete response to the specific needs of each client and place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In short, ours is an alternative to options that dismiss essential aspects of this craft. We must not reduce the breadth of architecture. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator alignwide has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-columns stk-block-columns stk-block stk-3304a3c\" data-block-id=\"3304a3c\"><div class=\"stk-row stk-inner-blocks stk-block-content stk-content-align stk-3304a3c-column\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-column stk-block-column stk-column stk-block stk-d918dea\" data-v=\"4\" data-block-id=\"d918dea\"><style>@media screen and (min-width:690px){.stk-d918dea {flex:var(--stk-flex-grow, 1) 1 calc(30.3% - var(--stk-column-gap, 0px) * 1 \/ 2 ) !important;}}<\/style><div class=\"stk-column-wrapper stk-block-column__content stk-container stk-d918dea-container stk--no-background stk--no-padding\"><div class=\"stk-block-content stk-inner-blocks stk-d918dea-inner-blocks\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-image stk-block-image stk-block stk-765cc52\" data-block-id=\"765cc52\"><figure><span class=\"stk-img-wrapper stk-image--shape-stretch\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"stk-img wp-image-1664\" src=\"https:\/\/ethelett.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Edgar-E-Benitez.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"588\" alt=\"Edgar E Benitez\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ethelett.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Edgar-E-Benitez.jpg 800w, https:\/\/ethelett.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Edgar-E-Benitez-300x221.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ethelett.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Edgar-E-Benitez-768x564.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ethelett.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Edgar-E-Benitez-16x12.jpg 16w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/span><\/figure><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-column stk-block-column stk-column stk-block stk-2507838\" data-v=\"4\" data-block-id=\"2507838\"><style>@media screen and (min-width:690px){.stk-2507838 {flex:var(--stk-flex-grow, 1) 1 calc(69.7% - var(--stk-column-gap, 0px) * 1 \/ 2 ) !important;}}<\/style><div class=\"stk-column-wrapper stk-block-column__content stk-container stk-2507838-container stk--no-background stk--no-padding\"><div class=\"stk-block-content stk-inner-blocks stk-2507838-inner-blocks\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-subtitle stk-block-subtitle stk-block stk-e7c8c1b\" data-block-id=\"e7c8c1b\"><p class=\"stk-block-subtitle__text stk-subtitle translation-block\">Ethelett is backed by <strong>20 years<\/strong> of experience in the development of architectural projects.

What to do to take it to a better level?<br><br>Here are some of my answers:<br><br>\u2022 Create art in the form of memorable places that impact the senses.<br>\u2022 Use science to achieve real solutions to real needs. Among these I would highlight the health and safety of the inhabitant. Not to mention care for nature.<br>\u2022 Close the gap between the architecture celebrated by architects and the preferences and dreams of clients; avoiding compromising quality for economic convenience.<br>\u2022 Avoid wasting finite resources both on the planet and in my clients' budgets.<br><br>These ideas, while obvious, are rarely seen in combination. Through my experience in several prominent firms and projects, as well as my scientific training during my master's degree, I have been able to integrate these ideas into my design approach. The Ethelett Foundation represents my commitment to putting these principles into practice.
