Abstract
The language of the comic is increasingly present in architecture as we can see in the illustrative strips or diagrams present in projects by leading architects such as Bjarke Ingels (BIG), MVRDV or Neutelings & Riedijk, among others. And at the same time, architecture is represented in the comics by sketchers such as Chris Ware or Richard McGuire. Thus, the two arts have their own narrative and are conceived in a remarkably similar way. Koldo Lus Arana, under the pseudonym Klaus, is another architect and university professor who, since 2005, shares his professional and academic activity with that of a comic artist. Through an unpublished interview carried out by the authors, their graphic and cartoon narrative is presented in which the interactions between comics, fiction and architecture are analyzed; without forgetting the reference authors who have used the vignette as a graphic tool to interpret architectural themes from critique and creative philosophy to pedagogy service
