Takahashi. Building with Wood in Peru, edited by Vincent Juillerat and Renato Manrique, analyzes Luis Takahashi's architectural output spanning more than 60 years of work, projects, and collaborations with other architects. Takahashi's inexhaustible technical knowledge is studied through the heterogeneity of his constructive and architectural solutions. Ultimately, his work serves as a mirror for projecting possible sustainable futures, in the sense that the relevance of his uncontrived interventions opens a debate about the need to rethink the conditions under which the built environment is constructed.
Takahashi. Building with wood in Peru seeks to recognize an atypical trajectory and rescue a fragment of the country's material culture, while also awakening interest in wood by dismantling some prejudices about the supposed limitations of buildings made from this renewable material.
