Author: Radic, Smiljan
The work of Chilean architect Smiljan Radić has found international acclaim following his superb 2014 Serpentine Gallery pavilion in London. This 2G issue features a selection of the houses built by Radić throughout his nearly three-decade career, from his extension to the Charcoal Burner’s House and his Small House to his last Wooden House and Prism House. Alongside the 14 houses featured are numerous texts from the author and others discussing his work.In addition to the 14 houses featured, a text by Enrique Walker explains the keys to understanding Radić’s domestic oeuvre; another, by Moisés Puente, describes the interventions that Radić created at an estate in Vilches for Puente and his family. Two texts by Radić himself discuss Chilean domestic architecture and the role of “repair” (rather than mere restoration or preservation) in architecture generally.
