Stereografía is a monograph in two voices. Understood as a book-artifact, it consists of two separate interviews with collaborating architects whose practices can be seen as linked, along with a central segment presenting images and floor plans of their joint projects. Stereography: Puga/Velasco features two interviews—with Cecilia Puga and Paula Velasco—conducted by Diego Grass and Rayna Razmilic, in a parallel dialogue discussing their biographies, practice, and culminating in a collection of their joint projects, including the Monument to Women of Chile, the Chile Pavilion at Expo Dubai 2021, and the Restoration of the Palacio Pereira, among others.
