Our firm is grounded on four guiding principles:
Focus on Leadership- Leaders infuse a fresh spirit in all
endeavors providing a distinctive vision in Project
Execution. Leaders deliver. Leaders wear their passion on
their sleeves, regardless of Project size or nature. Being big
or small is not the crucial issue. If you dont move, youdont move.
Total commitment for our community- What we do can
only make sense when done within a strong cultural
context. To contribute to our community with our efforts,
our ideas, our dreams, is what drives our work. By
participating fully in our community we turn the design
business into the experience business.
Total passion for innovation- Creativity in a design oriented
industry like ours, is really a complex issue. The truth is
that the urge to innovate at fournier:arquitectura is
market-driven. We ask ourselves: What do our Clients
need? How is that need fulfilled? How do we fit in when
fulfilling that need? Its design, not strategy, that ignites
passion in people. And the magic behind better design andbetter business is innovation.
Positioned to grow- To grow is definitely a strategic choice.
In order to be part of the new economy, you have to
nurture meaningful new relationships, new alliances, new
project-based partnerships. To face the challenge of
growth, you must energize the field with staff and
associates who share the firms core values. Whiledisparate growth may stiffle innovation and creativity,
orchestrated growth can provide the structure for future
leaders.

The Hollywood Model
Unlike some other architectural design offices, we do not sponsor the
"atelier" system, a term left over from the Beaux Arts past that
means that separate design teams are set up within the office to take
one project at a time and carry it through from the very beginning to
the end. Our office is much more responsive and simply structured.At F:A, we promote the interaction of specialists in each stage of
design and production that move in and out pretty much in the way
films are made. Just one person stays with a job all the way, and that
is the Integrated Project Team Leader, responsible overall for
everything, and who is the one person, aside from the principal,
authorized to deal directly with the Client.
This way, we can avail the best talent posible for each Project. We
promote the value of open collaboration, producing innovative
products for our Clients, avoiding copycat buildings and tired
solutions. This approach not only fosters innovation but does it at
warp speeds, understanding our Clients needs for completing
projects sooner than projected and anticipated. We have learned
how to assemble top-notch teams of specialists, inspire them to work
together in extremely productive ways, only to disband them when
the Project is over and reconfigure those same teams for the next
exciting job. So far, this model has worked extremely well

Why should YOU care 24/7 as WE do?
We believe in servicing you above all. Providing
breakthrough professional services-oriented architecture(SOA) is an art-science only mastered by the few. You
expect design excellence in a total-service environment
where great creative ideas and project profitability co-
exist. Versed in historic and contemporary architectural
theories, We aspire at more than talking or writing about
buildings. We consider projects within a comprehensive
realm of possibilities, looking at site opportunities,
cultural and economic environments, physical andfunctional needs including budget constraints. Most
architects stop here. No matter the size of the project, we
include in our analysis, construction techniques,
marketing, post-occupancy issues and branding.
Design, finance, and technology work together in
creatively and exciting new ways. Ten years ago, we were
convinced that a design practice under this prescription
was possible. We will work closely with our Clients in not
only meeting their inherently complex building needs, but
to do it in a fast paradigm-disrupting fashion.
Our Clients have witnessed the magic and proved us right.
We believe our praxis reflects the results of our beliefs
and efforts

2-engine Fire Station, San Lorenzo PR
The San Lorenzo Fire Station welcomes visitors whotravel to this town through the Chayanne Expressway. Itis shaped by local vernacular residential architecture,avoiding institutional clichs. The facility is split along acorridor spine, allowing each half to develop its own roofand skyline profile. The stairwell acts as a large windowto the Municipal Police Station and 9-1-1 EmergencyResponse Center.
The two-engine garage is located off the main road,allowing the main faade to develop fully without the
encumbrance of the boxy garage structure.The upper living quarters include relaxation andovernight facilities, while the ground floor includesoffices and receptions areas, with access to the firetrucks. The building facades react to different planesand colors, giving the structure additional volumetricpresence.

San Rafael Town Village, Trujillo Alto PR
The San Rafael TownVillage residential community consists of
38 single-family homes, featuring 4 bedrooms and 2-1/2
baths. Located on 7 lushly landscaped acres, the residential
complex is sited in a secluded self-contained development,highlighting natural water and land features. Prior to
designing the units, fournier:arquitectura csp led the re-
zoning efforts that paved the way for this project.
Residences are priced to sell in the $350K market. The new
recreational area and community park was designed as an
open space but also functions with a dual purpose in the
overall management of site storm water drainage system.
Over an acre was left untouched to enhance the overall
development. Other characteristics of the development that
make it both unique and desirable include a selection of avariety of facades for uniquely designed models, enhanced
vegetative walks and the catalyst for future designed
environments for the surrounding areas.
Presently, rows of run-down houses will make way for
revitalized neighborhoods and communities and improved
access roadways.

With 900students, the new school needs to managedifferent scenarios while providing efficientteaching, schooling, dining, studying, reading,playing and resting activities.
The design approach sought to integrate theseactivities within a large facility by breaking
program needs into smaller precincts, whilestressing those uses that connected the differenteducational levels and activities. This way, ourbuilding starts to be carved out and rotated to
allow for light, ventilation, vistas, controlledaccess and enlightening experiences whilelearning and carrying out a daily educationalagenda.

Expansion of Urban School, Toa Alta PR
The Nicolas Sevilla School of Toa Alta conformsone of three schools in the area, being this onethe most prominent. This is basically truebecause of its location on top of a light hill withinthe residential zone. Also, the existing building isnewer than the other two. The proposed additionsubstitutes the existing administration buildingand gives the renovated school, its new look
within the parameters of the Schools for the 21stCentury Program.
The proposed track and field facilities areincluded as an alternative rather than an item inthe base bid due to the fact that the allocatedarea is not sufficient to locate a working certifiablesports facility as regulated by the Officialorganizations ruling the sports activities. Wehave included an alternate using the standard ofthe University of Idaho, which, although it
includes the required distance, does not providethe certifiable geometry.
The rest of the program components have beenincluded in our offer, using the existing one-storybuilding by the existing parking facility. Theseareas will be converted to the dance and musicinstruction areas, avoiding the construction of anextra floor, thus able to bring the project withinprescribed budget considerations.
