Constructing Practice #4: Ramos Castellano




Moreno Castellano and Eloisa Ramos, Co-Founders of Ramos Castellano Architects, talk about how being based in Cape Verde influences their work process and projects. Ramos Castellano Architects was founded in 2010, in São Vicente, Cape Verde. Castellano’s artwork, as his architecture, is entirely focused on exploring potentialities of several materials, using mixed media to shape at the same time matters and landscapes. In his subjects he explores social changes with sharpness and Irony. Ramos’ approach to architecture is direct, clear and simple. The shape of her buildings came from a clear and sensitive vision of the context, the material , the available technology in site.

Constructing Practice traces the narratives of young firms from around the globe, featuring the participants of a Columbia GSAPP symposium that took place on November 17, 2017, and expands the conversation to include many others to tell us how they do what they do. Hosted by GSAPP Professor Juan Herreros, principal of Estudio Herreros in Madrid.
