AceboXalonso and architecture 53Seven

discussion

AceboXalonso and Architecture 53Seven are two young practices immersed in the creation of fresh and research-based architecture. Victoria Acebo and Jason O’Shaughnessy will present some of their projects to find common points for a dialogue.    

Victoria Acebo and Ángel Alonso hold diplomas from ETSA, Madrid. Winners of the 9th Spanish Architecture Biennale’ Young Architects Award for the Centre of Arts building (2007), they also got the 1st Prize from the Architectural Association of Castilla-León in private housing category. In 2008 they won VETECO Award for the best façade. In 2007 the Architectural Association of Madrid has published a monograph on their work within the Monoespacios collection.

Architecture 53Seven is a practice that, despite only being established in 2000, has already won several prestigious architecture awards and has been shortlisted and exhibited in several International Competitions. Established by its principal, Jason O’Shaughnessy, the focus of the practice has been on the delivery of inventive architecture, with particular interest in developing new forms of occupation that reflect the complexities of modern life.
