Angelo Bucci

"Architecture Work"  

SPBR Arquitetos, São Paulo, Brazil 

Lecture: Wednesday, February 14, 2024 | 6:00PM | ARCH 132 DF Pray Lecture Theatre

Angelo Bucci has been dedicated to building and thinking architecture for more than 30 years, sharing his time between both professional and academic activities. These parallel fields define a special approach to the projects by SPBR, founded in 2003, in which professional demands are understood as an engaging opportunity to research and speculate on new ideas.

His projects engage critically with the paradigms of modern architecture, highlighting the importance of structural accuracy and distinctness, construction viability, transparency, and, most importantly, the understanding of urban space as a field of dialogue among architectural works.

SPBR has attained an increasing recognition through awards, conferences, publications and exhibitions in Brazil and abroad during the last fifteen years. The office has as its major motivation the exploration of a field of unrealized possibles, aiming at a meaningful design practice, informed by previous experiences and responsive to a proper use of resources, in which the human and the environmental appear as one.
