This book gathers a selection of writings organized into two basic categories: profiles of historical and contemporary architects, ranging from Adolf Loos to the British collective Assemble, and chronicles of buildings—primarily Spanish, though interspersed with European excursions. Straddling the line between the rigor of critical essays and the pleasure that any narrative should provide, these “non-fiction works” are constructed from a unique way of observing architecture, far removed from the clichés common in mainstream media.
