Text presentation of the author in English
Architecture is, without any doubt, linked to photography, and my passion for the latter has gradually grown, becoming a common means of capturing the unusual and various places discovered through many journeys. Active in both professional practice and education, the built space is a major subject of my own photographs, through its variety and quality. Any trip – shorter (a scientific conference, a trade fair, a sports competition) or longer (a winter or summer vacation, a student traineeship, a world exhibition) – to a new location represents for me an opportunity to encounter architecture from other areas or cultures, immortalizing both constructive innovations and traditional techniques.
Project description in English.
In current urban planning practice, straight lines and rectangular lots are most often proposed on land without significant unevenness, being the easiest to manage and most affordable. The introduction of water, on the one hand, and curved elements, on the other hand, represent intentions for more expensive real estate developments, here being a peripheral area of the Buenos Aires metropolis. But even in this situation, the period of time until complete urbanization depends on the economic evolution of the future inhabitants.
