ABOUT US
Our architectural practice is influenced by field studies experience in Europe and the Middle East, which has increased our understanding of how geometrical composition, materials, and the harmonious arrangement of buildings is done in different cultures.
Founded in 2010 by Nelson Camargo and Virginia Guerrero, NCVG architecture is an international design studio with experience in design and construction of hi-end residential, office buildings and places of worship.

He is a registered architect in the state of Florida and in the Commonwealth of Virginia, he is also member of the American institute of Architects, American Planning Association and LEED AP BD+C.
Virginia studied architecture in Colombia and Historic Preservation in Italy at the prestigious “University of la Sapienza” in Rome. She worked with Cartagena’s City Hall Preservation Department.
