Critical texts #14 

Carmen Espegel

This book (2022) is a theoretical self-portrait in words, almost a mobile likeness over time. For thirty years, Carmen Espegel’s trajectory has been articulated in three complementary areas: academic teaching, disciplinary research, and professional practice. These areas run parallel, but due to their permeable nature, they foster synergies that generate multiple readings. In a way, this compilation is a faithful reflection of the past, a dynamic transcription of the present, but it also contains a certain prospecting for an uncertain future. Espegel believes that architectural projects, whether written, built, or taught, are the result of a precise harmony between investigative exploration and a critical filter that selects from diverse alternatives. Her articles are framed under the headings of “Architecture in the Feminine: Images of Gender,” “Questioning Housing: Towards Livable Homes,” and “Critical Temperament: The Attentive Gaze.”
