I wanted to be a filmmaker more than an architect. Hernan Diaz
Architecture is about a series of dumb, or not so sophisticated, ideas that have a huge capacity to generate complexity over time.
The notions of filming and cinematic effects without any architectural meaning. The production of image as a vehicle for form more than any other condition. Science-fiction aesthetic quality.
The production of information and the control of the geometry that allows nonconventional forms to be translated into a kind of vocabulary that allows you to manipulate it and control it.
The work moved from the idea of singular surface to the idea of having multiple units that can be reproduced, mutated and organized. Incremental variation within the repetition.

We think about each of these projects as architectural problems. We don't think about them as art problems even though they may convey as artistic effect.
Develop the concept of “species�. The evolution of the form. Looking for a new dynamic logic of forms.
The project is not based on an organization of functions but in the generation of sensations through cells that are multiplying producer for the building.
The ambitions are clear, to produce beauty in terms of future and not a condition that we already know.
