“House in Guápulo”, a representative project of Guadalupe Ibarra, the first woman architect in Ecuador, is the result of a pragmatic process, without allegations about locality or identity, but which, due to its consistency in execution, allows establishing a discursive and critical structure. The work is observed, as a starting point, from a dialogue between geography, landscape and typology. Once the macro context of its implementation is understood, an approach is made to the spatial and material cultures, an issue that also allows to understand the logic of insertion in the place, and that due to its own location and design mechanisms turns the house into an element of transition between different topographies, landscapes and urban areas. Finally, on a smaller scale, a brief analysis of the actors in the process is addressed: inhabitant, author and other collaborators. As conclusions, what was previously stated is integrated, a reflection on the architectural strategies for the Andean landscape, recognizing Ibarra for the weight of his contributions, without demagoguery or do-goodism, where contextual, spatial, compositional, and constructive issues of the project are analyzed, allowing value it as an object where the parts and the whole establish synergistic relationships.
