La casa come spazio dell’anima: Intervista-dialogo con Julio Gaeta e Luby Springall a cura di Roberta Albiero

This interview explores the deeper meaning of dwelling through the voices of architects Julio Gaeta and Luby Springall, life and professional partners based in Mexico City. Their home, built upon a pre-existing modernist structure, becomes a living organism–transformed over time through seven renovations–mirroring their approach to architecture as an evolving, layered, and emotionally charged process. The conversation touches on the role of memory and imagination in designing one's own home, the negotiation between different cultural visions of domestic space, and the interplay between private life and professional practice. Nature, impermanence, and shared authorship emerge as central themes, redefining the house as a dynamic place of affection, creativity, and identity. An intimate and professional reflection on the act of building and living, where architecture becomes a vessel of memory, transformation, and belonging.
