Sketches, essays, projects and more from the Houston-based architect and professor

Costa Rican American architect Carlos Jimenez (born 1959) pursues scholarship through design—integrating drawing and writing with the making of buildings and architectural spaces. In 1983, he established Houston-based Carlos Jimenez Studio, an innovative design practice that focuses on the endurance and refinement of form and space. Jimenez was a long-term (2001-11) jury member of the Pritzker Architecture Prize. This book is a 35-year journey through Jimenez's career, exploring the discipline of architecture through practice and teaching, but also through writings, drawings and buildings. A curated collection of his essays, written from 1989 to the present day, reflect on outstanding cities, architects and buildings around the world: from New York to Houston, from Erik Gunnar Asplund to Luis Barragan, and from the Kimbell Art Museum to the Crowley House, among others.
