Manuel Cadrecha
Manuel spent his formative years in two distinct cities—Madrid and New York—that together offered him a taste of “the old and new worlds.” The former instilled in him a love for history and tradition, while the latter charged him with a passion for modernity and the power of creative invention.
His father, an engineer, instilled in him an admiration for ancient Rome—and a belief that architecture is “the last humanist profession.” Manuel agrees wholeheartedly. His work ranges in scale from citywide international developments to neighborhood schools, and is grounded in a love for materials and form, color and light, old and new, and “the inspiring in the everyday.”
Manuel lives in Atlanta with his wife, and loves spending time with his daughters and granddaughter.
