Unintentionally wanting, our beloved Bea and Paco (political correctness by placing Beatriz in front) start their latest article for La Ciudad Viva1 with a cultured reference, from those of ETSAM castiza, to an article from the ‘50s. From that tightrope swing, in which few can maneuver, jump without quarreling to quote Argan, introducing in his investigative virtuosity a certain cross reference […]
The parametricism, or rather, the guru of parametricism, with its ill-fated manifesto has done a lot of damage to those who, like us, work with digital tools trying to stay on this side of formal banality. Parametricism may be a style. The parametric architecture does not. How to explain the differences? Well I do not know very well. Perhaps simply […]
In 1963, Ivan E. Sutherland, presents his thesis “Sketchpad: A man-machine graphical communication system”, directed by Claude E. Shannon, creator of the Theory of the Information. “The Sketchpad system makes it possible for a man and a computer to converse rapidly through the medium of line drawings. Heretofore, most interaction between men and computers has been slowed down by the […]
Have you realized that we have not written “on the relevancy of the digital thing in the architecture”? The article to which there in-cite us our darlings bRijUNi, waiting for my onslaught of miura, is going to allow me, to open some ideas. And eye; far from being obliging or presumptuous, I am going to try to speak not from […]
In the last years the term has used very much processes to say to an architecture that it is interested fundamentally for the events understood like feno’menos in process. Nothing to object. Podri’a to say even that the architecture in that we are interested has much that to see with the time and the understood events hereby. The question comes […]
Towards an informational architecture. Or how to do the same of a completely different way. I go time giving the tabarra with it of the informational architecture. So much that I could not stop gathering Alberto’s all or nothing when he asked me to explain it here. The jump that might produce to him in the manners of making myself architecture […]
The publication of architecture that you see above captured in a pantallazo was produced by us it does more than ten years. Not if it was an intuition, a lighting or a pedrá, but the certain thing is that already we were speaking about a series of concepts that now it seems that they worry some and to others they […]
It is a topic that I have treated already several times, but, and you will excuse the opportunism to me miser, it of yesterday it has left her me bouncing. A few days ago, he was chatting with Lorenzo Barnó in the Laboratorio de Ideas del COAG on another important topic for us, that of being a company and he was […]
Since you will know already many, last week we were talking in the Laboratorio de Ideas del COAG in the Colexio Oficial de Arquitectos de Galicia headquarters in Vigo. The labor of documentation that the collaborators of the Laboratory have been and realize is extensísima and very organized, so I am not going to fall down in doing a chronicle that […]
This photo was chance. One of these captures that you can do simply because it gives the chance of which when you look, you take the chamber raises. Time later, we returned to happen for the same place in another visit and discovered a landscape that, though it was coinciding with place, it had changed into essence. Where before there […]
Of small we were visiting the house of my aunts often. It was closely together of ours, but while I was living in a modern floor they they were doing it in an ancient block that today still continues in foot. Whenever it was entering his lounge his window was astonishing balconera. There was something in her that was doing […]
We go time with this topic in the mind. We are a small study and with a still short path, with what whenever we receive a curriculum, and we receive many, it overwhelms us to see so much potential of that we cannot take advantage. And since we cannot contract all the tremendous architects that you ask for work us, […]
To god or to the devil? This it is the dilemma that us takes a fancy that there must suffer the companions who work under the method of project and work. It should not be an object of dilemma. The architects we are professional and must have the sufficient labor ethics to be able to discern the good and evil, […]
A question opportunely thrown by our admired Carlos Cámara put the finger in the sore and it has made us recover an internal debate that we liked to extract to the light. Why do people prefer to a builder before that to an architect? Carlos was not raising a dichotomy, was giving for this reality made, the people do not want […]
