100: Cristina Gamboa (Lacol)

Cristina Gamboa is a co-founder of the Barcalona-based architecture cooperative Lacol."We are constantly fighting with budgets, and are often left with what is absolutely necessary – a “pure” architecture. […] When the manzanas [Cerda’s urban grid for Barcelona] were built without architects this lead to a homogeneity, or even genericness, that we are comfortable with, maybe because of its lack of a specific aesthetic narrative."Episode References: John Habraken – frameworks of mass supportLucien KrollFrei Otto Francesc Rius – Coll De Portell HousingAlfons Soldevila – Casa Mas RamScaffold is an Architecture Foundation production, hosted by Matthew Blunderfield. Download the London Architecture Guide App via the App Store or Google Play Hosted on Acast.
