Archivo de Ideas Recibidas is an interdisciplinary research and dissemination project that seeks to document and connect the ideas of individuals who contribute to the contemporary creative ecosystem through art, design, and architecture. It is built on conversations between the team and various creators, delving into themes related to memory, academia, cultural context, their primary influences, and working methodologies.
In this installment, they introduce Sandra Barclay of Barclay & Crousse. Founded in Paris in 1994, the firm has been based in Lima since 2006. Their work is conceived, according to the architects themselves, as a design laboratory that explores the bonds between landscape, climate, and architecture, challenging notions of technology, use, and quality of life that, arising from the specific conditions of developing countries, can inform and remain relevant in a global context.
