About Uribe Schwarzkopf and LA Arquitectos : Our office has been formed from our personal experiences. The fact that both partners transitioned from a more traditional background to contemporary education has influenced us and nurtured our growth and also allowed for a better understanding of our different surroundings. Having worked in multiple countries and traveled around the many extremes of the world gave us the tools to help move a local Ecuadorian architecture to a global perspective and push our personal agendas of materiality and form. The unique experiences constantly provoque conversation for the opportunities of creating a better place with the simplicity of good design.
STATEMENT OF ART:
We start every project with an idea of how to best create a playful relationship between the generic volume of the building and the local environment. Ideas of static versus kinetic are often incorporated as a starting point for exploration. Buildings tend to remain static, through sculptural techniques new relationships emerge.
