EL CROQUIS 148: COLLECTIVE EXPERIMENTS – SPANISH ARCHITECTS

Description

Do the workgroups featured in this publication share a national context? Some of them (the two in Barcelona) are not headed by people who were born in Spain nor have a Spanish nationality. They have assistants who have been trained at universities around the world. The architects who head these studios are part of a minority much closer to academia and the exceptional project than to the generic architectural market. Almost all of them have devoted part pf their time to publications and teaching. This issue contains works by Arquitecto VLC, Arquitectos Paredes Pedrosa, Estudio IP, Estudio JDS, Arquitectos López Rivera, and cero9 Amid. The introductory essay is by Andrés Jaque.
