AV Monographs 239 - El Equipo Mazzanti

Author of some of the most prominent buildings completed in Colombia in the past years, like the Spain Library and the Sport Centers in Medellin, or the extension of Santa Fe Foundation in Bogota, Giancarlo Mazzanti (Barranquilla, 1963) takes inspiration from construction games to generate, starting from geometric elements and modular pieces, spatial structures that become living spaces for the community. Understanding architecture as a collective action, the Bogota-based studio focusses its work on play, experimentation, and exchange of ideas among a variety of professionals, including engineers, sociologists, and artists.
