183: Balancing Beauty with Business with Alberto Campo Baeza

This week’s episode was quite an honor as I had the privilege to sit down with an impactful and important figure of Spanish Modernism: Alberto Campo Baeza.
Though he doesn't look it, Alberto is 75 years old and still producing extraordinary buildings, including THE ROBERT OLNICK PAVILION in upstate NY, along with a number of stunning private homes around the world.
He is a tenured Professor of more than 35 years, and an Emeritus Head Professor of Design, at the Madrid School of Architecture (ETSAM). He has also taught at the ETH in Zurich, the EPFL in Lausanne, L’Ecole d’Architecture in Tournai, Belgique, and many more in the United States.
Alberto gives lectures worldwide, and has received significant recognition like the Torroja Award for his Caja Granada, the Award of the UPM University for his Excellence in Teaching, the Heinrich Tessenow Gold Medal, the RIBA International Fellowship 2014 of the Royal Institute of British Architects, and more.
The list of acknowledgements, awards, publications, lectures goes on and on.
In today's episode you'll hear about:
The challenges of running a business and producing work like he does
How to listen to a client and communicate with them that Architecture takes a long time
The 3 pillars of being a successful Architect

When a person doesn't know much about economics, the first thing he does is to set a price. How are you going to know the value of all architects? How do you know if one of them is a student while the other one knows nothing? How do you evaluate the quality and creativity of one architect over another? It is your experience and your quality that drives your final price.

I studied in UFV where he built the Multi-sport pavilion which is another architecture lesson. I've been listening this podcast for a while now as I'm based in LA atm and it's been the best surprise ever to find out you had an interview with one my idols! Such an inspiring person who practices gratitude as much as good architecture. Thanks for this interview!! 🙌🏽
