Intersecting Gazes: The Carvajal House

This is an original, miscellaneous, rich, and distinct book that offers the reader an uncommon journey through an unconventional home, designed and built by Javier Carvajal—one of the great architects of the second half of the 20th century—in the mid-1960s in Somosaguas. The measure of the Casa Carvajal's uniqueness is evidenced by the fact that Carlos Saura used it as the setting for his film La madriguera—a telling title regarding the role assigned to the architecture—in which the house plays a part, silent yet omnipresent, with the force of another character in the drama.
