Biography
After 7 years of individual work, in 2003 Santiago Cirugeda created the Recetas Urbanas architectural studio continuing the development of subversive projects in different areas of urban reality that would help to cope with the complicated social life within, from systematic occupations of public spaces made with containers, to the construction of prostheses for facades, backyards, roofs and empty lots. All of these are done through a negotiation process between legality and illegality, as a way to remember the enormous control to we are subjected.
