About our publications
What are the publications like?
Both TC Cuadernos magazine and the other collections are paper publications.
We put as much care into the format as into the choice of paper and the layout in order to offer a pleasant reading experience and to create timeless publications to keep and collect.
In terms of the content, in TC Cuadernos magazine, in addition to photographs and descriptive and analytical texts, various plans and construction details are selected and redrawn specifically for the issue, thereby providing both a theoretical and a practical contribution to the understanding of the architectural work.
These publications are eminently practical in nature. Thus, the emphasis on explaining the projects in detail contributes to the way in which the architecture presented serves to improve the work of those who study it in search of learning and inspiration for their own projects.
For most issues, there is a link to a preview of the publication's content.
In some cases where the paper version of a book is out of print, the publication will be available in PDF format, which is indicated by the icon below.
The Pdf projects section contains a selection of projects published in the different collections and are in Pdf format without DRM restrictions.

Are they in English?
Most of our catalogue is published in a bilingual Spanish/English edition.
Some of our titles are only in Spanish and others have an English translation of the texts at the end.
If you are looking for publications that are in Spanish/English, you can use the language filter to display only bilingual publications.

Where can I find them?
Our publications can be found in all major architecture bookstores worldwide.
Please write to us to find the nearest bookshop to your home or workplace.

Are there digital publications?
Through tccuadernos.com it is possible to buy and download files on architectural projects carried out in different places and with different uses.
These digital files are in PDF format and correspond to the projects published in the different magazines, so they are always developed at a graphic level with photographs, plans and details with good resolution.
