Contents

Guillermo Vázquez Consuegra has achieved something that greatly exceeds the knowledge of the right way of doing or the virtues of well-done and well-constructed architecture.

When the precision of words seeks a beauty that transcends the rigor of mere description we approach the world of poetry. This search is present in the way of constructing and characterizing the architecture that Guillermo Vázquez offers us in all his works.

Materials meet each other in a natural, simple way, with an accuracy that doesn’t need to search for banal difficulty. It is a natural and elegant precision built using the rhyme of three subtle words, three words that only the one who has ever intended to find knows how elusive they are. The dictionary of elegance cannot be found on any library, it is written inside oneself with time and accurate gaze and reflection on the work.

Just those three words, these three materials, these three ideas, are capable of reconstructing the sensation of a poetic seduction regarding the value of an unrevealed detail.
