UDEP Lecture Building / BARCLAY&CROUSSE Architecture

Daniel Tapia — Mon, 03 Sep 2018 09:00:00 +0000

The UDEP campus is a huge land located nowadays within the urban grid of the city of Piura, nearly a thousand Kilometers North from Lima. It keeps a very interesting sample of Equatorial Dry Forest, mainly constituted by carob trees over sand soil. Recently, the University responded to a public grant for admitting low-income rural students and a new pavilion was urgently needed for accommodating an increasing student population.

Cristobal Rojas — Mon, 12 Feb 2018 14:00:00 +0000

The restaurant is located in the extension of the sports pier of the regatta club, founded in 1875. The project takes up the elements and materials with which the first nautical venue was built, which remained unchanged until the 1920s:

House D3 / BARCLAY&CROUSSE Architecture

Rayen Sagredo — Mon, 25 Sep 2017 09:00:00 +0000

The project explores the complex relationship between intimacy, domesticity, spatial expansion and transparency, inspired on the traditional limean houses, which respond to an introverted scheme where the street façade, opaque and abstract, give place to a lively courtyard in the interior through a single space called zaguán.

Site Museum of Paracas Culture / BARCLAY&CROUSSE Architecture

Cristobal Rojas — Tue, 04 Apr 2017 11:00:00 +0000

An archaeological museum must find the delicate balance between heritage conservation exposed and release to the public. A site museum, as the Paracas, acquires the additional challenge of having to integrate into the landscape that was the cradle of this culture, which is now part of the most important biological and landscaping reserve of the Peruvian coastal desert.

Building AS / BARCLAY&CROUSSE Architecture

Karen Valenzuela — Mon, 24 Aug 2015 11:00:00 +0000

The project is located on the edge of a typical urban park in San Isidro.

Place of Remembrance / BARCLAY&CROUSSE Architecture

Cristian Aguilar — Fri, 09 Jan 2015 01:00:00 +0000

The main objective of the project is to dignify man and insert itself harmoniously in its geographical and urban context. It is integrated into the landscape by recalling the memory of the Costa Verde, with its cliffs and gorges, using its characteristic materials (boulder) and the native vegetation of reeds.

Visual Arts School / BARCLAY&CROUSSE Architecture

Karen Valenzuela — Tue, 15 Apr 2014 01:00:00 +0000

Extending a building vertically is a difficult task, especially when time separates the original construction from the extension. The strategy consists of integrating the different 'lifetimes' of the building creating a new unit: the project arises from the analysis of the design strategies used by previous architects to propose an extension that relates to the building without imitating it, keeping the prominence of the original version.

Under Construction: Place of Remembrance / BARCLAY&CROUSSE Architecture

Fernanda Castro — Wed, 29 Jan 2014 01:00:00 +0000

The Truth Commission, led by Peruvian writer Mario Vargas Llosa, launched in 2010 an open national architectural competition for the construction of a place of reconciliation between Peruvians, confronted for over twenty years in a conflict initiated by the terrorist movement Sendero Luminoso, which killed more than 70,000 people.

W Houses / Barclay & Crousse

Nico Saieh — Mon, 12 Mar 2012 00:00:00 +0000

This set of 4 houses stems from a “prototype” house, La Casa Equis (2003), situated in the same bay. While the houses were not designed as a set, they share a coherency with their surroundings and reference the life style engendered by the Peruvian desert.

Flashback: Casa Equis / BARCLAY&CROUSSE Architecture

Victoria King — Sat, 17 Dec 2011 01:00:00 +0000

The project emerges from a process of reflection on certain factors that we retain essential: the climatic conditions of the Peruvian coast, the geographical characteristics of the coast in which the dwelling was to be located, and the clients needs.
