Al borde, Ekvador- ENG

Al borde is a project led by four architects. They try to be consistent in approaching architecture in the most human way possible with minimal resources, not as an excuse for their scarcity, but as an aesthetic and political resource in itself, placed on the border between art and architecture. They develop a kind of “intimate discussion of place” and, as a work ethics, propose a design that originates from the “common intelligence”. Through various projects, they generate dynamics of social interchange where people design from their own collective consciousness. Al Borde is a forceful project that continuously questions the idea of an architecture ruled by discipline and driven by capital.”
