A course by Dx Arquitectos
Sergio Hidalgo and Germán Rodríguez are the directors of DX Arquitectos, a Chilean firm dedicated to the design and construction of architectural projects at different scales: from furniture to houses, offices, industries, and public spaces. DX was born from the meeting of a group of 7 students from the Faculty of Architecture and Urbanism at the University of Chile, who at the turn of the millennium, aspired to reformulate the classic way in which architecture studios were structured for the generation of projects.
The projects and works of DX can be seen on their web page and in different publications dedicated to architecture like Arch Daily, Dezeen, Mark, Plataforma Arquitectura, and others.
