About Santiago Allende
Hi and welcome! I am Santiago Allende, an architect with experience in both large and small firms, working on projects of varying scales and phases of design and construction. I am currently living in Los Angeles, following my Master's in Architectural Technologies from SCI-Arc. I have worked in New York at Rafael Viñoly Architects, in Uruguay at Rafael Viñoly as well, and in Italy where I completed part of my studies, as well as in Argentina.
Originally from Argentina, I come from a family of artists, which has deeply influenced my curiosity and passion for creativity. I am always eager to explore new ideas and experiment with different materials and techniques. In addition to my professional work, I enjoy carpentry and crafts, finding joy in creating and building with my hands. This blend of artistic heritage and hands-on experience enriches my architectural practice, allowing me to integrate advanced technologies into design while maintaining a strong connection to the tangible and the human aspects of space.
