Romera y Ruiz, “the game” of architecture

The two architects Romera and Ruiz, after having worked independently each of them in professional studios at national and local level, founded the ROMERA Y RUIZ ARQUITECTOS studio in 1999 in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria.

A plot created, a fragment of the city on a certain land, allows the participation of all the apartments created, characterized by an alternation of rhythms and shapes, which determine the innovative character of the project.

One the best work of architects is surely “8 Casas y 3 Patios”. Inscribed houses, with their small boundaries, are thought and built as a microcosm.
consequence, making them infinitely manipulable on the inside.
Discrete spaces, whence contained creates dialectical relationships that result in the creation of infinite sequential border spaces.
Each element plays a significant and specific role by creating telescopic houses inscribed one inside the other.

The search for desired relationships with the context animates the work of the two architects, creating continuous rhythms through the designed structure: a dynamic and changing element that adds values.

“We work in a place near and far”.
The project, based on the interpretation of architecture, a different understanding, emte by each of us, aims to adapt these houses to the environment, to the plant species.

The various works by Romera y Ruiz reflect the interpretation of architecture as a sort of “game”, where the concepts of learning, design, construction, design and imagination are mixed to create new buildings capable not only of communicating with the surrounding environment , but also with who will live in that place, transforming it into something very pleasant.
