Eine Plattform für die Wissenschaft: Bauingenieurwesen, Architektur und Urbanistik
Alejandro Aravena has gained international honours and awards for his pioneering work at Elemental. An independent practice with a ‘social conscience’, Elemental seeks to deliver greater equality for urban dwellers and improve the quality of people's lives. It has formed key partnerships with Universidad Catolica de Chile (Chile's Catholic University) and the Chilean oil company, COPEC. Here Aravena describes some of the works that have informed Elemental's strategy: from its first housing project in Iquique in northern Chile to a sustainable masterplan with Arup for the coastal town of Constitución in the wake of the Chilean earthquake.
