Portrait — Gabriel Chaussée Jiménez

Gabriel Chaussée Jiménez

A graduate of the École Spéciale d'Architecture in Paris (DESA, recognised as equivalent to the French State diploma in architecture) and holder of the HMONP, the French qualification to practise in one's own name, French-Mexican, he founded Atelier Cantera in 2024 with William Wu. He trained at Dominique Perrault, at Atsushi Kitagawara in Japan and at Studio KO: structure, light, place. There he worked on prestige hospitality projects and private residences, where precision is a matter of millimetres.
