JULIAN FUMAGALLO

Studio Director, Argentina

Julián Fumagallo is an architect whose passion for design is deeply intertwined with his love for the arts, music, and the natural world. Born in Rosario, Argentina, a city rich in musical and artistic culture inspired by the Paraná River, Julián’s formative years were spent immersed in this environment, where he developed a unique appreciation for creative expression.

Before completing his studies at the Universidad Nacional de Rosario, Julián embarked on his first international architectural experience in New York City, where he collaborated with a local firm on high-end restaurants and housing projects. This invaluable experience allowed him to apply innovative ideas and techniques back in Argentina, where he has since worked on a diverse array of projects ranging from industrial and public housing to retail spaces, collaborating with various firms and partners. In 2023, Julián successfully co-established Bell Design Group’s Argentina office, filled with exceptional architects that work on projects near and far.

Julián’s personal journey as an architect is driven by his love for the ocean and nature; his passion for surfing and extensive sailing adventures profoundly inform his design philosophy. Combining artistic instincts with a deep understanding of materials and a curiosity about how things work, Julián approaches each project with fresh perspectives, aiming to enhance the functionality and aesthetic appeal of the spaces he creates.
