LANZAROTE 💦 “It is difficult to detach architect Cesar Manrique and his oeuvre from Lanzarote’s landscape, just as it’s hard to pigeonhole this eclectic figure — architect, artist, ecologist — who produced equally unclassifiable architecture, often built without plans or drawings. He felt that architecture should vanish in order to be respectful towards the landscape. And that is exactly what he did time and again — sinking, burying, excavating — in many of his architectural projects. Cesar Manrique was more than just an ‘architect’; he was a ‘discoverer.’” Original text by @maioarchitects Photography by @philippejarrigeon for #PINUP24 Read more #archival content at pinupmagazine.org #lanzarote
