Cristina Álvarez Rodríguez

Argentine architect and politician

Cristina Álvarez Rodríguez practised at a period when the terms of architecture itself were under argument.

The record lists Cristina Álvarez Rodríguez as Argentine architect and politician.

Cristina Álvarez Rodríguez was born at Buenos Aires in 1967. Her recorded nationality is Argentina. She trained at University of Buenos Aires.

Contemporary practice is global, computational and preoccupied with energy: the profession's central question is now what a building costs the climate.

She is recorded as architect and politician.

Buildings outlast their architects and usually their purposes, which is what makes the discipline unforgiving.

That the work was built in Argentina shaped it: climate, materials, planning law and who holds the budget all decide what can actually be built.

Cristina Álvarez Rodríguez is still practising, and the body of work is not yet complete.
