For Centuries, The World as we know it has lost its context!. Every place, every City, every Country, has its own unique way of representing the Architecture of their buildings. As we attempt to follow a path that has been written by decades for our Ancestors Architects, we ask ourselves the question of whether we should fly towards the victory of an ideal. In this case the preservation of the Classical Architecture of a building. Just a few will dare to cut the kite string and let it fly, but once that day come and you decided to go for it, in that precise moment you will have the Architectural world in your hands. The path is already there, although there is not an uncomplicated way to get there, the hope of creating a piece of work that represents the creation of an Architecture that has the essence and the culture in its own way is accomplishable, we just need to learn how to get there. That is the challenge, to stop following the same pattern, to feel free and to look back at the classical era, and to cut the string and launch yourself to fly!.
