Arquitecto Fabián Salame is an architecture firm begun in 2011 and based in the Galapagos Islands, Ecuador. We are a young and energetic firm dedicated to the design of high-quality architecture both within the Islands and beyond. We strive for beauty, usability and sustainability in all our projects, and work closely with clients to ensure their goals are met.
Fabián Salame is a graduate of the Irwin S. Chanin School of Architecture at the Cooper Union in New York City. He is a registered architect both in Ecuador and the State of New York. He has twelve years of experience, including seven working in Manhattan, first with Bottino Grund Architects and later at Jonathan Schloss / Architect. He was involved in numerous residential, commercial, historic and performing arts projects, and was Project Architect for several jobs. He returned to his hometown of Santa Cruz, Galapagos in 2010 to start his own practice.
You've come too far...
We have added several projects that we are developing for Santa Cruz Island to our online portfolio. This includes the Aguacatal and Miramar Residences, as well as a mixed use residential and commercial project. In addition, the construction of the El Eden Residence is nearly complete and we hope to include photos of the completed house soon.
We have added the Salasaca Residence to our project list. It will be located in the highlands of Santa Cruz, surrounded by lush green hills. We hope to begin construction this year. You'll find renderings in the "residential" section of our project page.

We have updated our website. Renderings of two projects currently in the design phase have been added. Also, photos of a recently completed architecture studio (our own) have been uploaded. Look for them in the "commercial" and "residential" sections of our project page.
Fabián Salame will be the architect for the diagnostic and therapy center of Florecer por Ti, an organization dedicated to providing care and treatment for special needs children in Galapagos. The Galapagos National Park has generously donated 3000 square meters of land for the project, which is also being supported by Children of Galapagos, a U.S. based charity founded by Treecy Meier. Visit their page if you'd like to help out.
We are pleased to announce the launch of our brand new website fabiansalame.com. The site includes information about our firm, design philosophy, location, and contact information. It will also include a "projects" section with photo galleries, which for the time being contains only images of past work experience, but will be updated as our own projects progress and are completed. This "news" section will contain updates about our firm and projects. We hope you find the site informative and easy to use, and appreciate any comments and/or criticisms.
Check back for updates.
