The present study is focused on architect Honorato Carvallo Cordero and his design strategies in four projects carried out in the cities of Cuenca, Loja and Quito between 2004 to 2020; and in his catalog. For this purpose, a qualitative research approach with an analytical-exploratory analysis was used. The information was obtained mainly from secondary sources, added direct interviews with the architect, in addition field visits to the selected case studies. During the study, data was collected on modern and Cuenca architecture, as well as on the architect's trajectory and biography. In addition, the selected projects were documented and analyzed according to aspects considered by Carvallo which are highlighted in each case, which were determined according to the interviews conducted. The work shows much of the labor done by the architect, which had not been shown, being this key to confront the current negative architectural context that has been developing in certain parts of the country. Carvallo emphasizes the importance of place as a primordial aspect, using certain criteria to create projects that fulfill satisfactory with its requests and integrate with their surroundings, which has made him a reference in his field. The results show the criteria used by Honorato, whether based on conditioning factors or formal intensifiers to enhance an architectural project, which could serve as a guide and inspiration for future generations of architects.
