"Can architecture reflect various aspects of Peruvian society? The fifty-two architectural works compiled in this volume intend to give an answer; but, also, encompass --from the disciplinary point of view-- their high technical qualities, such as the impact they have had on their respective physical and cultural contexts, making them the best of contemporary architecture built throughout Peru. "Habitat Ideas. Architecture in Peru 2010-2020" is a first journey through the most beautiful and solvent architectural projects and interventions on different scales and territories of the country, represented by more than four generations of architects whose active participation is reason for optimism when thinking about the future of this discipline in our environment. But this book is also a call to attention to two of the main gaps that arise in our situation: the almost null intervention in our rich urban and architectural heritage, and the omission of our professionals to address urban planning and design in all government scales and instances. It is a sincere desire to contribute to urban regeneration plans through the construction of a memory of our architectural urban legacy. In this way --and as a whole-- improve the functioning of our cities, neighborhoods or population centers alike. It is a challenge that we must face in the 21st century, both as a professional group and as a society." -- Provided by publisher. A major catalogue of the best works of contemporary architecture in Peru in the last ten years. A compilation of the best built works of the last decade in Peru through a selection of projects built on various scales and territories represented by more than four generations of architects. Peruvian architect Frederick Cooper, awarded by RIBA, states how This publication aims to resume the task abandoned years ago of recording Peruvian architectural production in order to -as I believe is demonstrated in this first effort- collect works that yield an indisputably positive balance. Hence, its editors have resolved to resume this work annually with the purpose not only of stimulating the spirit of selfless designers and focused on the positive development of the trade, but to accumulate evidence without which it would be more difficult to persuade the State to open its sponsorship to some protagonists who, despite the small scale of the contributions they have been able to make due to lack of project opportunities, has managed to put Peru in a prominent place within Latin American architectural production .ʺ (HKB Translation --Page 11.
