MARIA ESTEBAN CASAÑAS
ROME PRIZE
Spanish Academy in Rome - Italy - 2017
​
Computational Baroque is a study into Borromini’s San Carlo alle Quattro Fontane. The project results in the formation of new and endless structures based on the geometrical logic of the church's original dome.
​
These studies serve as a critical lens to explore computational and parametric tools in architectural discourse, revealing spatial and geometric idiosyncrasies of Baroque architecture, and in turn, those of the computational discipline.
​
The Rome Prize is awarded by the Spanish Academy in Rome, Italy.
