Feminism, ecology, research and social innovation in architecture

Lecturer's Abstract听

The jury of 听stated in 2013: 鈥楾he jury really admire听the courage of Izaskun Chinchilla who tries to open unconventional paths through research听and architectural education while being deeply concerned by a particular combination between social engagement, aesthetics and techniques to reinvent a new vision for ecological environment in her projects. The realisation of every project is transgressing architecture and art installation for embracing the social in public spaces. The jury wants to enhance her dynamism in breaking the limits and her strength to express it through drawings which have been influential on a new generation of young architects.鈥�

Looking back on these comments, Izaskun reflects on whether, five听years later;听social engagement, ecology and female architecture have shifted from being in the periphery or the 鈥榣imits鈥� of architectural practice to occupy the core of debates and discussions.
