UT School of Architecture Spring 2021 Lecture Series: “Ensamble Studio: On-Site Off-Site” with Débora Mesa Molina

Date:

Mon, Feb 8 2021, 12:30 - 1:30pm

Location:

Débora Mesa Molina is a European licensed architect and principal of Ensamble Studio, a cross-functional team she leads with her partner, Antón García-Abril. Balancing imagination and reality, art and science, their work innovates typologies, technologies, and methodologies, and every project makes space for experimentation and aims to advance the field. Through their start-up WoHo they are currently developing ways to increase quality and affordability in architecture through the integration of offsite technologies. In her lecture titled “Ensamble Studio: On-Site Off-Site,” Mesa proposes an immersion into the processes of conception and realization of the firm’s work. She will address topics as diverse as the construction of the landscape and the prefabrication of the house, revealing how technologies are at times appropriated, at times invested and at-all-times creatively utilized in service of architecture.

This event is part of the Spring 2021 Lecture Series presented by the UT School of Architecture.
