IMMERSE INTO THE CREATIVE PROCESS OF HÉCTOR CASTRO: WHERE ARCHITECTURE BECOMES ART

From March 25 to May 10, 2024, the Iris Ceramica Group showroom in Madrid dresses up to host "Where architecture becomes art", an exceptional exhibition curated by Isabella Casas López that invites you to immerse yourself in the decade of sketches, 2013-2023, by renowned architect Héctor Castro.

Héctor Castro is not only an exceptional architect, but a master of the sketch. His deep gaze captures the essence of an idea from its conception to its materialization, capturing each detail in its precise and meaningful strokes. With almost 30 years of experience in design and construction, he leads Work Place Consulting Group (WPCG) together with María Fernanda Espinosa. His firm merges interior design and construction to offer comprehensive and unique solutions to its clients, standing out for its personalized approach and commitment to sustainability in each project. His works range from homes and cultural centers to clinics, offices and homes, transforming dreams into tangible structures that shape our world.

This unique exhibition invites you to embark on a fascinating journey through the mind of a master architect. Hand in hand with his sketches, which capture the genesis of his works, you will feel like an explorer traveling through a world where creativity merges with logic and space comes to life before becoming reality. Beyond a simple exhibition, the exhibition challenges the linearity of time. Do not expect a chronological order because precisely what is sought is to highlight the timeless connection between the construction and the essence of the architect, allowing a dialogue between different creative moments.

Explore the essence of creation. Each sketch is a testament to Hector's imagination, capturing the spirit and essence of what can be. And more than a preliminary design stage, the sketch becomes an artistic expression that captures the magic of each desire to be realized.

"Where architecture becomes art" is an invitation to explore the beauty and depth of architectural creation. A unique experience that inspires you and makes you reflect on the role of the architect as an artist. Discover the power of the sketch. Don't miss this opportunity to live a memorable experience.
