Hi! I’m Sebastian

I have worked as a teacher, visualizer, and illustrator.

My specialty is architectural representation, from drawing 2d plans to 3d visualizations, exploring different styles based on digital tools or hand drawing expression.

I have always felt a huge affinity for all related to architectural representation. 

I enjoy working and looking for new ways to show an idea, and I want to transmit to every new architect around the world and to everyone who loves architecture all I can teach about this amazing passion.
