Professionalism with the soul of an architect.
Jose Manuel Aranda studied architecture at the School of Architecture of the University of Seville, and since 1985, he has primarily carried out his professional work in Marbella and on the Costa del Sol.
He has run his own studio for 40 years and carried out a wide range of tasks in the field of architecture.
Projects for all types of housing, as well as hotels and commercial buildings, particularly high-end properties.
Providing economic studies for the most prominent real estate agencies on the Costa del Sol and their investors.
CEO of investment funds. His work involves purchasing land or buildings for refurbishment, conducting market research, creating project plans, overseeing construction and interior design, and managing all stages of the architectural process, including licensing, notary services and registration.
His work covers everything from preliminary studies to completion; including legal, urban planning and financial advice.
With over 30 years’ experience coordinating the various trades involved in the construction process, he offers his expertise as a subcontractor coordinator to help clients achieve competitive prices and greater legal security for their investments.
Complementary services include managing building permits and declarations of first occupation or new construction; horizontal divisions; registration at the land registry; applying for connection permits and supply companies contracts.
“In all the projects I’ve worked on, I’ve realised that an architect’s role is to be creative without imposing their personal criteria. This involves studying the promoter’s psychology and needs, and guiding them to achieve their goals by contributing my experience and creativity to optimise their ideas.
To achieve this, I believe it’s essential to combine a professional attitude with a friendly approach in personal interactions, given that this is a provision of services that is founded on mutual trust.
I cannot envisage carrying out architectural management work without an in-depth understanding of the developer’s or client’s objectives. This knowledge is crucial in order to provide them with informed advice on the design, the choice of materials and the interior decoration of the project.
As an architect, I believe that my professional work should encompass every stage of an architectural project.
As with any profession, I believe that creativity should not only extend to the originality of the project itself, but also to the advice provided and the relationships established with everyone involved. In short, creativity is about bringing out the best in people and providing value that goes beyond economic considerations.”
My approach to advising on real estate investments and bringing them to fruition through the design and construction of assets is inspired by and grounded in four fundamental pillars. Without these pillars, the interactions that take place during the investment or construction process would be ineffective or impossible, and the atmosphere of enthusiasm and serenity required to achieve the highest possible standard of work would be unattainable.
PROFESSIONALISM
A meticulous and agile study of the urban and legal conditions of real estate assets and their infinite possibilities.
A thorough understanding of the needs and ambitions of everyone involved in the investment process, from investors to final buyers or tenants.
Selecting the optimal design options for the assets to be developed.
A thorough study and selection of the most profitable alternatives, based on the investor’s objectives.
From the moment we commit to intervening, it is crucial that the preliminary studies are carried out quickly and professionally in order to make sound decisions and find the best investment and final product opportunities.
HONESTY, INTEGRITY
Mutual trust between the participants in this process must be based not only on doing a good job, but also on THE CLIENT understanding that our team will act with honesty and integrity in every task entrusted to us.
AVAILABILITY
In today’s climate, it’s clear that competitiveness and innovation are essential for the success of any investment or architectural project.
Our team knows that our availability is what sets us apart in this sector, where appearances and marketing can sometimes mask superficiality or inefficiency.
CREATIVITY
Creativity is the result of a job well done. We understand that professional expertise, mutual trust, achieving the objectives of the investment or project entrusted to us, and the availability of our team are all KEY to achieving our core objective.
However, we mustn’t forget that almost everything has already been invented. It is through creativity that we can bring out the best in each of our members, collaborators, and everyone who has placed their trust in us.
Happiness is not just about achieving a goal by any means necessary. It’s most fulfilling when we use these means to enhance our professionalism, integrity and accessibility. This is the greatest form of creativity to which we can aspire.”
