With over 20 years of professional experience, Braulio Baptista embodies the intellectual curiosity and talent to sensitively integrate user values and aspirations with creative, innovative approaches. In his 18 years with ZGF, Braulio has been involved in a variety of projects, with an emphasis on technologically advanced and programmatically complex public and institutional buildings. His responsibilities on projects have involved planning, conceptual design development, technical and design coordination, and documentation. As an architect, he has been called upon to create and implement programs that bring together very diverse groups to facilitate consensus on a shared design vision and to work together in producing a mutually acceptable product. Through his experience designing academic facilities, Braulio has gained an understanding and respect for architectural continuity, which has led to his belief that each building must establish its own identity while respecting and enhancing the surrounding campus of which it becomes a part.
