Mariano Gomez-Luque is an architect, (urban) designer, and photographer from Argentina, where he leads FORMA, a small architecture office located in the rural region of Córdoba. He is an affiliated researcher at the Urban Theory Lab, and holds a Master of Architecture and Doctor of Design from Harvard’s Graduate School of Design.

His work moves across critical urban theory, science fiction, and visual studies—often simultaneously. A recurring preoccupation: how to represent urbanization once it can no longer be contained within the figure of the city? What kinds of drawings, diagrams, images, and texts does a planetary urban condition demand? And conversely: What alternative forms of urbanization can be imagined through critical visualization? These questions run through his teaching and design projects, exhibitions and publications, and have led him toward things like speculative typological research, science-fictional drawings, scalar composites, and experimental writing.

He is also interested in postcapitalism, skyscrapers, Daft Punk, and the problem of form.
