“Our work goes beyond the building. As architects, we are sewing the fabric of our communities.” 
- Javier Salazar
Javier Salazar has over 17 years of experience in architectural design and construction document production. He is skilled in 
designing and producing projects using 2D and 3D software, animation, and graphic design. 

Inspired to become an architect by his father’s hard work in the industry, He's enthralled by both the artistic side of the practice and the construction elements. He believes his personal connection to his work as an architect drives him to continuously improve and design solutions that go beyond client expectations. 

He takes time to get to know each client and ensure they have full ownership and direction over their final design. From start to finish, he works to make sure all their needs are met.

While transforming ideas into functioning designs, Javier also uses his technical knowledge and skills in 2D, 3D, animation and graphic design software to demonstrate concepts to the client. 

Prior to joining RG Architects PA, Javier he guided the Fort Myers office of a statewide firm to become that company's first Institutional office to produce REVIT projects.

Engaging with the variety of people involved in each project always makes his job exciting and rewarding. Javier is particularly proud to be part of the well-rounded team of professionals at RG Architects and the consistent quality and commitment the team brings to carry a project through every level of the design and construction.
