LECTURE / Magui PEREDO
Magui Peredo and her partners at Estudio Macias Peredo design and construct projects that are closely linked to local craft and original design in both buildings and interiors. Their work is aligned with the environment in a site-specific manner, and also incorporates local artisans in the building process. Among their outstanding projects are El Eco Pavilion, Torre Avancer, Casa Tejada, Edificio Turin, Casa Guzman Jimenez, Complejo Industrial, Casa Americana, and Punta Caliza Hotel Holbox. In addition to their professional practice, Ms. Peredo and her husband/partner Salvador Macias coordinate the Jardín 17 architecture exhibition space at Casa Estudio Luis Barragán in Mexico City. Ms. Peredo has exhibited her work at the National Palace of Fine Arts in Mexico City, at the Illinois Institute of Technology (IIT) College of Architecture, at SFA MOMA, and at the Mexico pavilion of the 2020 Venice Architecture Biennale.
Estudio Macias Peredo presents lectures and forums on their practice in universities in Mexico and abroad. The studio has won several awards, including the Emerging Voices prize by The Architectural League in New York; and was a finalist in the Mies Crown Hall Americas Prize Competition. Magui is also a project workshop professor at ITESO in Guadalajara and a member of Mexico’s National Academy of Architecture.
