Relato is led by Fabiola Vélez, whose Master’s degree in Interior Architecture anchors the studio’s practice. With earlier studies in psychology and art history, her approach to design is both intellectual and intuitive — grounded in construction, yet attuned to emotion and culture.

Having trained within leading hospitality and design studios, she learned to translate concept into built form. Each project begins with a narrative — a cultural reference, a personal history, a point of tension — and is realized through disciplined detailing and material precision.
