Postgraduate Studies

In the future I would like to do a postgraduate course related to wood’s construction. I want to do it because I think that wood is a very important material in the country and we are not taking advantage of it. We build almost everything in concrete, but we have good examples of wood’s architecture, like the churches from Chiloe.

I want to do it course in Japan, because there exists a huge culture of wood’s architecture. There are important architects like Kengo Kuma and their buildings.  There I would like to learn to write, read and speak Japanese, I’ve heard that write and read is especially hard. There I want to have a subject that teach to work the wood in different ways.

I would like to have part-time courses, that way I could know well Japan and have some part-time work to support my life there. I’m really interested in culture and history of Japan so I would like to enjoy my time there as much as possible haha.

With all the knowledge acquired I want to be a sort of “wood’s Architect” and make projects taking advantage of all benefit of the wood to do a sustainable architecture and more environmental friendly. I would also like to show the different ways of work the wood either like sheets, like bars, like volumes, etc
