F&P in times of quarantine
April 2020
Eva Prats & Ricardo Flores are interviewed by L’Architecture d’Aujourd’hui on working during the covid-19 lock down.
Extract from the interview:
Are containment and architecture opposites?
“In our way of doing architecture there is a double component, complementary one to the other: there is a physical approach to the context, taking data and information from the reality, and later there is the use of this data at the studio to help us reflect and draw. At this moment the part of our work that has to do with the physical contact with the reality and the clients, which is crucial for us to be able to draw, is missing.
On the other hand, as the trips and movements we had to do for other commitments are not taking place, the confinement has given more regularity to the reflective part of our discipline. But of course, we are missing the balance between working in the streets and working in the studio.”
