Fernando Tabuenca
Fernando Tabuenca cofounded Tabuenca and Leache, Arquitectos, together with his partner Jesús Leache. The firm was established in Pamplona, Spain, more than 25 years ago. They have received many awards and recognitions in Spain and abroad for their built work, developed mostly from winning public competitions. Their projects have been published in international magazines including El Croquis, A&V, Arquitectura Viva, Casabella, Detail, Architekture Aktuell, AIT, Octogon, A+U, and many others. Two significant built projects are the Saint George's Parish Church and the renovation of the Constable's House, both in Pamplona.
