Sordo Madaleno Arquitectos was founded in 1937 by the renowned Mexican architect Juan Sordo Madaleno (1916-1985). His style permeated and was recognized as a hallmark of "Mexican Modern Architecture" worldwide. He collaborated with other recognized architectural firms of the time, such as Luis Barragán, José Villagrán García, Augusto H. Álvarez, Ricardo Legorreta, Francisco Serrano, and José A. Wiechers. In 1982, Javier Sordo Madaleno Bringas (Mexico City, 1956) took control of the firm started by his father and led it to exponential expansion of projects of all types, always interested in creating new urban conditions and benefiting the user at all costs. Javier created Grupo Sordo Madaleno in 2008, in which he currently serves as Chairman of the Board. Although Sordo Madaleno has been in the real estate business for more than 50 years, it was not until the formation of the Group that the entire Real Estate Development area was integrated independently.
