Available to hire
Hello! I’m Juan Esteban Hernandez Cardona, an architect and visual designer based in Hamburg, Germany. I create atmospheric spaces through a blend of architectural design, digital visualization, and material study, with a particular interest in heritage, narrative, and the interplay of light and space.
I thrive on translating ideas into precise, high-detail visuals and robust design development, from concept sketches to architectural presentations. My work seeks to connect imagination with construction, exploring how cities and buildings mediate memory, culture, and daily life.
