Francisco earned his degree in Architecture and Urbanism from Universidad de Belgrano in Buenos Aires in 2019. While still a student, he began his career at Marcelo Seiref’s architecture studio (Marq), where he had his first hands-on experience in architecture and construction, working directly with the different trades. He later took part in residential and commercial projects at Losanj, alongside his university classmates. He then collaborated with a Miami-based interior design studio while developing independent projects, building an interdisciplinary approach and an international perspective on design.
From an early age, Francisco felt a deep attraction to construction and design. He spent hours building with toy blocks and drawing houses. Growing up in the city sparked a desire for a closer connection with nature, in contrast to the lack of green spaces and the constant noise of urban life. This sensitivity continues to guide his work and inspires spaces that harmonize human experience with the natural environment. His vision stems from the conviction that architecture should not only meet the needs of those who inhabit it, but also improve their everyday lives and foster a deeper connection with their surroundings.
In 2020, Francisco co-founded Seiref with his brother, giving shape to a shared vision: creating architecture and objects designed to live together in harmony, under a single identity. The studio pursues an interdisciplinary design practice that brings together architecture, interior design and object design, aiming to improve people’s quality of life through spaces and pieces that respond to their needs and enrich their everyday experience. Its work is grounded in craftsmanship, attention to detail and enduring elegance, with the intention of creating designs that transcend trends and accompany those who live with them over time.
