About Agustín Quiroga : Father, Husband, Entrepreneur, Agustin is passionate about everything he does. He works for convictions, not for interest. He believes that success is only a consequence after a long journey that is driven by dedication, determination, perseverance, passion, effort and a bit of luck. He believes more in being a person with values than a successful one with none. He is a relevant person in the environment that he develops, leading the design association of a country and a design and architecture company that is well positioned in the industry, but that does not matter to Agustin, what really matters to him is that what he does generates an impact and positive changes in the people who relate to it. His greatest achievements beyond professional recognition, publications in media or large projects, have been to be able to do what he likes and be valued by others.This he shares it with a team of people who believe in what they do together, sharing the same vision. In addition, he is grateful for his family which pushes and motivates him in everything he does. If he could describe an advantage or ability, it is the being able to connect, nail down and never stop dreaming. His contribution to society is multifaceted: His role in Chile Design as Vice President, the promotion of public policies for the improvement of the industry, the guidance of universities in helping to build the professionals needed by the country in the field. Another major contribution is his championing of the importance of the value of design and its impact on the life of people and environments where we live.He achieves this by insuring the development of transparency and good practices, in addition to many projects that are done in the office whose sole purpose are to contribute in different areas of society, indifferent scales and contexts. He says he is not the one to say if he is interesting or not. "That should be evaluated by others."
STATEMENT OF ART:
Design is a vital tool for transformation and impact that has been progressively incorporated into new fields of action in public, private, and international affairs. It has become a strategic element in the generation of new ideas, innovation, entrepreneurship, production, and providing services. It is certain that through this field we can improve our environment and quality of life.



“Make life better by design”. Through the power of design we can create better places, products, processes, and improve performance. Moreover, it is cross-disciplinary because it brings together different work fields and solves a great number of problems. Although design has to be strategic and functional, we shouldn’t forget that it is also aesthetic. It has a sensory power that connects through beauty.



Furthermore, art is tangible and intangible: it is a collaboration of individuals coming together to make a statement or generate something real from simple ideas and concepts. It can be whatever we want it to be, about any topic, done by and for anyone. At its highest form, it brings people together and helps us reflect about humanity. Art gives us the opportunity to celebrate what makes us unique and what makes us a whole. It is a tool for expressing either great joy or unbearable pain, and a way to communicate what words can’t convey. In that way, art can even be more honest and truthful than actual reality.
