ARCHITECT: Reason + Emotion

Description

The essence of Menis architectural work is based on repeating the best of the past, re-creating situations that have worked before. His method is grounded in the need to re-utilize resources of nature and the landscape, culture and history, according to each project and place. His architecture is closely tied to his awareness of living in a valuable and strictly limited territory: the Canary Islands.
