Unfolding southamerican utopias: the Clip/Stamp/Fold in Santiago.

Santiago has had the chance for this first landing.

Architecture, Urbanism, Construction and Arts configure its name as well as the matching with the aboriginal (mapuche) word, which means Rebel. Also AUCA bore a respectable name because it born in t...
