During the last 15 years her focus has been on the profound changes that digital technologies instigate in the way architecture is thought, designed and built. In 2005 she founded the Centre for IT and Architecture (CITA) at the Royal Danish Academy – Architecture, Design, Conservation where she has piloted a special research focus on digital-material relations. Her investigations into computational modelling, digital fabrication and material systems have helped shape an international field exploring new material practices in architecture. In 2025 CITA comprises a vibrant research community. In 2022 she was appointed Cret Chair at the University of Pennsylvania where I focus on bio-based additive manufacturing. In 2018-2023 she was General Reporter and Head of Science Track for the UIA2023CPH world congress \u201cSustainable Futures \u2013 Leave no one behind\u201d asking how architecture can contribute to the UN SDGs.

Their practice is defined by an ongoing exploration of digital crafting, where computational design technologies encounter local material cultures, traditional techniques, and craft-based knowledge. Their methodology combines the systematization of natural, artificial, geometric, and spatial phenomena through generative algorithms with a strong artistic and cultural dimension rooted in local heritage. Through parametric design, gt2P integrates design, development, and fabrication processes, while traditional experience and material knowledge enrich the generative systems\u2014the \u201cDNA\u201d\u2014that give form to their work.<\/span><\/p>\n Instagram: @gt2p<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/dipl_image_card][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”2″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” max_width=”2560px” custom_padding=”8px||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][dipl_image_card title=”Maria Loreto Flores” image=”https:\/\/sigradi.org\/sigradi2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/ZHA_MariaLoretoFlores_.jpg” show_button=”on” button_text=”Website” button_url=”https:\/\/www.zha.com\/people\/maria-loreto-flores” content_custom_padding=”12px|20px|20px|20px|false|true” _builder_version=”4.27.7″ _module_preset=”default” title_font=”|600|||||||” content_font_size=”13px” custom_button=”on” button_text_size=”16px” button_icon=”5||divi||400″ button_alignment=”left” border_radii=”on|8px|8px|8px|8px” box_shadow_style=”preset2″ box_shadow_horizontal=”1px” box_shadow_vertical=”1px” box_shadow_blur=”4px” global_colors_info=”{}” button_bg_color__hover_enabled=”on|hover” button_bg_color__hover=”#c5ce1e” button_bg_enable_color__hover=”on”]<\/p>\n Maria Loreto Flores is an Associate Director at ZHA, where she has worked since 2006, leading major projects across Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and Latin America.

Since its creation, FAU has embodied the public vocation of the University of Chile, promoting a critical and reflective approach to the production of space, with a strong emphasis on social responsibility, equity, and the common good. Its academic project articulates teaching, research, and creation as interconnected dimensions, oriented toward understanding and transforming the built and territorial environment in response to the country\u2019s social, environmental, and cultural challenges.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n FAU carries out its academic activities on the Andr\u00e9s Bello Campus, located in central Santiago, where undergraduate and postgraduate programs coexist with research centers, laboratories, and spaces dedicated to artistic and cultural production. At the undergraduate level, the faculty offers degree programs in Architecture, Design and Geography, fostering interdisciplinary perspectives that connect spatial practices with social and territorial processes. At the postgraduate level, FAU offers doctoral and master\u2019s programs, along with postgraduate diplomas, which contribute to advanced research and professional specialization in architecture, urban studies, geography, and related fields.<\/p>\n \n As part of the University of Chile\u2014an institution that serves a community of more than 40,000 students\u2014FAU plays a strategic role in the education of professionals and researchers committed to the public interest. Through its academic, research, and outreach activities, the faculty contributes to critical debates on the city, territory, and environment, reaffirming its responsibility in the construction of more just, inclusive, and sustainable forms of habitation.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” max_width=”1300px” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][dipl_image_card_carousel space_between_slides=”24px” cards_per_slide_tablet=”2″ cards_per_slide_phone=”1″ cards_per_slide_last_edited=”on|phone” _builder_version=”4.27.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][dipl_image_card_carousel_item image=”https:\/\/sigradi.org\/sigradi2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/FAU6.jpg” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/dipl_image_card_carousel_item][dipl_image_card_carousel_item image=”https:\/\/sigradi.org\/sigradi2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/FAU2.jpg” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/dipl_image_card_carousel_item][dipl_image_card_carousel_item image=”https:\/\/sigradi.org\/sigradi2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/fau1.jpg” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/dipl_image_card_carousel_item][dipl_image_card_carousel_item image=”https:\/\/sigradi.org\/sigradi2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/facultad-infraestructura-auditorio.jpg” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/dipl_image_card_carousel_item][dipl_image_card_carousel_item image=”https:\/\/sigradi.org\/sigradi2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/FAU3.jpg” _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/dipl_image_card_carousel_item][\/dipl_image_card_carousel][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Venue” module_id=”venue” _builder_version=”4.27.7″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#000000″ collapsed=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” _builder_version=”4.27.7″ _module_preset=”default” max_width=”1300px” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”||0px||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding_tablet=”” custom_padding_phone=”||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.7″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”|600|||||||” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” text_font_size=”13px” background_enable_color=”off” width=”12%” width_tablet=”24%” width_phone=”70%” width_last_edited=”on|phone” module_alignment=”left” custom_margin=”||8px||false|false” custom_padding=”2px||2px|26px|true|false” custom_padding_tablet=”2px||2px|24px|true|false” custom_padding_phone=”|24px|||false|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” text_orientation_tablet=”center” text_orientation_phone=”center” text_orientation_last_edited=”on|phone” module_alignment_tablet=”left” module_alignment_phone=”center” module_alignment_last_edited=”on|phone” border_radii=”on|24px|24px|24px|24px” border_width_all=”1.5px” border_color_all=”#d9e021″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n 2026 Venue<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.7″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”rgba(255,255,255,0.85)” header_3_text_align=”left” header_3_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_3_font_size=”24px” header_3_line_height=”1.4em” custom_margin=”0px||||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”0px||||false|false” custom_margin_phone=”0px||0px||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”0px||||false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”0px||||false|false” custom_padding_phone=”0px||0px||false|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” header_text_align_tablet=”center” header_text_align_phone=”center” header_text_align_last_edited=”on|phone” header_3_text_align_tablet=”center” header_3_text_align_phone=”” header_3_text_align_last_edited=”on|tablet” text_orientation_tablet=”center” text_orientation_phone=”center” text_orientation_last_edited=”on|phone” module_alignment_tablet=”center” module_alignment_phone=”center” module_alignment_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” max_width=”1300px” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.7″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Welcome to <\/span>Santiago de Chile<\/span><\/i>, the political, cultural, and economic capital of the country. Located in the heart of the Central Valley, the city extends along the banks of the <\/span>Mapocho River<\/span><\/i>, framed by the <\/span>Andes Mountains<\/span><\/i> to the east and the Coastal Range to the west. Founded on February 12, 1541, by Pedro de Valdivia under the name <\/span>Santiago del Nuevo Extremo<\/span><\/i>, Santiago has grown into one of the most significant metropolitan centers in Latin America.<\/span><\/p>\n As the core of the Greater Santiago metropolitan area, the city concentrates more than seven million inhabitants and hosts the country\u2019s main political institutions, universities, cultural centers, and economic activities. Its extensive connectivity and infrastructure include a modern public transportation system, an international airport, and major highways that link the city to the rest of the country and the region. Santiago\u2019s urban landscape combines historic districts with contemporary architecture, offering a wide range of museums, gastronomy, shopping areas, theaters, parks, and large-scale cultural and entertainment venues.<\/span><\/p>\n Santiago has played a central role in Chilean history from the colonial period to the present day, serving as the stage for key political, social, and cultural transformations that have shaped the nation. The <\/span>La Moneda Palace<\/span><\/i>, seat of the Chilean government, stands as a powerful symbol of the country\u2019s republican tradition and modern political history.<\/span><\/p>\n The identity of Santiago is the result of multiple overlapping cultural layers, beginning with the indigenous presence in the Mapocho Valley prior to Spanish colonization and continuing through the colonial and republican periods reflected in its urban form and institutions. These foundations were later enriched by strong rural\u2013urban exchanges, significant European immigration during the 19th and 20th centuries, and, more recently, by multicultural dynamics driven by Latin American and global migration. Together, these influences have shaped a diverse, complex, and constantly evolving urban identity.<\/span><\/p>\n The city is home to a wide range of heritage sites and cultural institutions, including colonial churches, historic neighborhoods, and internationally recognized museums. Landmarks such as the Church of San Francisco, the National Museum of Fine Arts, and the Chilean Museum of Pre-Columbian Art testify to Santiago\u2019s historical depth and cultural significance.<\/span><\/p>\n Today, Santiago presents itself as a dynamic and globalized city marked by contrasts and coexistence. Financial districts with high-rise buildings stand alongside traditional neighborhoods and large urban parks, such as the Metropolitan Park of Santiago, one of the largest urban parks in the world. Its contemporary artistic, cultural, and gastronomic scenes continue to expand, positioning the city as a leading urban destination in South America.<\/span><\/p>\n Come and discover Santiago de Chile\u2014a city where history and modernity intersect, where cultural diversity thrives, and where urban life unfolds between mountains, parks, and vibrant neighborhoods. Santiago is an accessible, welcoming, and multifaceted city that invites you to experience the richness of Chilean culture. Enjoy Santiago.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_video src=”https:\/\/sigradi.org\/sigradi2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Host-city-Reel.mp4″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_video][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ module_id=”travel-information” _builder_version=”4.27.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” max_width=”1300px” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.7″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”|600|||||||” text_text_color=”#282828″ text_font_size=”13px” background_enable_color=”off” width=”20%” width_tablet=”20%” width_phone=”70%” width_last_edited=”on|phone” module_alignment=”center” custom_padding=”2px||2px||true|false” border_radii=”on|24px|24px|24px|24px” border_width_all=”1.5px” border_color_all=”#d9e021″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Essential Travel Information<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”2_3,1_3″ _builder_version=”4.27.7″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”rgba(217,224,33,0.05)” background_enable_image=”off” background_blend=”overlay” max_width=”1250px” custom_padding=”40px|40px|40px|40px|true|true” border_radii=”on|16px|16px|16px|16px” border_width_all=”0.5px” border_color_all=”#d9e021″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”2_3″ _builder_version=”4.27.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.7″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#000000″ header_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_line_height=”1.4em” header_3_font=”||||||||” header_3_text_color=”#000000″ header_3_line_height=”1.35em” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Santiago International Airport is the main gateway to Chile and is located approximately 20 km from the city center.
