Francisco Mangado

Description

From the key project of the Pamplona Baluarte to the office building for Metrovacesa in Madrid, via the Archaeological Museum of Vitoria, the Fine Arts Museum of Oviedo, the Congress Center in Palma, or the Norvento headquarters in Lugo, the fast-paced production rhythm of Francisco Mangado has not undermined his didactic vocation. This book gathers fifteen of the key works developed by the studio between 2000 and 2020. The architect himself introduces each work, explaining the concepts that are the driving force behind them: context, material, topography, economy, technique, space, program, process, representation, nature, heritage, urbanity, industrialization, energy, and identity.
