Pioneers of Modern Spanish Architecture (3)
Critical analysis of a work of architecture
This edition focuses on the in-depth analysis of emblematic and little-known works by the great architects of the modern movement in Spain. Using a rigorous approach, participants unravel the values, strategies, and criteria behind significant architectural projects, exploring how these decisions not only shaped an era, but also continue to influence contemporary practice.
Organized into four thematic sections, the book ranges from the impact of urban and landscape context to the exploration of construction techniques and design strategies. Each paper highlights the importance of the passage of time in analyzing architectural legacy, offering new interpretations of works by figures such as Alejandro de la Sota, Miguel Fisac and Sáenz de Oíza, among others.
