Cristián Nanzer (born in Córdoba, Argentina, on July 2, 1968), an architect since 1993, founded his architectural studio, Estudio NZ, in 2013, as a synthesis of his professional practice and his academic activity. His architecture focuses on materialisation and theoretical exploration, moving thought through his projects. NZ Studio is the continuation of the M+N studio: Marchisio+Nanzer Arquitectos, the first association with Mariela Marchisio (1993/2012).
The tension between tradition and innovation defines the search territories of his practice. The legacy as a cultural and operational reference and innovation as a necessary mutation of what is inherited to face emerging contexts are the basis of his projects.
He currently works simultaneously and in a complementary manner in two fields of the discipline, professionally practicing architecture and academically as a Professor of Architecture at the Faculty of Architecture, Urbanism and Design FAUD of the National University of Córdoba, Argentina.
