He combines teaching with professional activity as an architect. Co-founder of BGMarquitectos. He has designed and built numerous public and residential buildings, receiving different awards and participating in multiple national and international architectural exhibitions such as the JAE group, Young Architects of Spain in 2005, promoted by the Ministry of Housing, with his work Casa Arizabalo in Hondarribia , the Salon d´Automne de Paris in 2017, in the architecture section or the Housing The Basque Country, 1981-2018 of the Department of the Environment, Territorial Planning and Housing of the Basque Government. Likewise, he has developed and participates in different educational research projects focused on learning based on active methodologies, as well as the introduction to new BIM work methodologies in architecture.
COVID-19 had a major impact on the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, and it produced a crisis in Goal 4, which is aimed at ensuring quality education, among others. In this work, a university experience that aims to solve the challenges in this complicated context by means of BIM technology is presented. On the one hand, this study focuses on the development of teaching by means of active methodologies based on real projects through BIM models, using the latest information and communication technologies, and on the other hand, it focuses on the management of the education center by means of a virtual BIM building. This allowed for, among other things, tackling the sustainable management of the measures required to prevent contagion. These BIM models made it possible, for example, to optimize spaces while maintaining social distances between occupants, to simulate the best options for classroom ventilation, and to optimize special cleaning and disinfection resources. Students who developed their learning through these BIM virtual models were not restricted in receiving online classes; they learned to collaborate from anywhere in the world, acquiring skills that allow them to effectively face real situations that are as complicated as COVID-19.
