About Us

From Labor to Legacy

At Koncept 8, we believe great homes are built through trust, intention, and clear communication.

Built on Passion

Koncept 8 was built on a shared respect for quality work and lasting designs. Influenced by the materials and building traditions of our founders’ home countries, we bring a practical understanding of craftsmanship to every project. Our approach combines precision with creativity, resulting in work that’s thoughtful, durable, and true to its purpose.  

Gerson Bueno, originally from El Salvador, discovered his passion for construction early on. After moving to the U.S., he bought and rebuilt his first home in Texas at just 19, sparking a lifelong dedication to the craft. He went on to flip and build numerous homes before becoming a project manager for a luxury builder in Austin, where he refined his expertise in the high-end space. As co-founder of Koncept 8, Gerson is known for his hands-on approach, sharp problem-solving skills, and attention to detail, all focused on bringing clients’ visions to life with precision and care.

Alejandra Manjarres, originally from Colombia, moved to the U.S. to attend Utah State University, where she gained hands-on project management experience in luxury student housing development. She later worked on high-end remodels in Park City before relocating to Texas, where she held sales and project management roles with a production builder. Passionate about creating personalized homebuilding experiences, Alejandra founded Koncept 8 to combine her luxury remodeling expertise with the structured systems she learned in production building, delivering exceptional service and lasting client relationships.
