Rafael Gomez-Moriana

Educator, writer, translator, curator, designer, builder

Barcelona, Spain
I am an architect who mainly teaches and writes, but also designs and builds small projects. My studio courses and theory seminars deal with architecture in relation to urbanism, while my writings address the built environment in general. I direct the University of Calgary's architectural study-abroad program in Barcelona, lecture at the Council on International Educational Exchange, and teach in the Metropolis Masters Program in Architecture and Urban Culture. I have published articles and essays in various magazines, journals and books, and am a regular contributor to Mark magazine.
