Practical Lighting Manual

Light plays a decisive role in the execution of architectural and interior design projects. However, most literature on the subject consists primarily of catalogs from light source and lighting equipment manufacturers. Until now, with the publication of Manual de Iluminación, there has been no single document consolidating all the information necessary for approaching a lighting project. The author drew from a wide range of sources, including books, catalogs, and manuals from international organizations and renowned manufacturers such as Philips, Osram, General Electric, Erco, Iguzzini, Lamp, Flos, Zumtobel, Westinghouse, Deltalight, Targetti, and Reggiani, among others. This information is synthesized into tables, charts, and practical recommendations, serving as an essential guide for students and professionals in the field.

Cuadernos Trama / Contemporary Architects 1. Gabriel Rivera Arquitectos. Recent Works and Projects 012/020

Gabriel Rivera views architecture as the experience of dwelling—as the architect's response to user needs, site conditions, and the built or natural environment. Architecture as experience and as a reflection of the self; a search for joy, clarity, and calm. Architecture that serves as an experience for the senses, defined by materiality and ideas; it is the pursuit of life's flow, a human design act with a purpose and a rationale, always born from reflection on ways of dwelling, being, feeling, and living to uncover its motivating meaning. Architecture that acts as an extension of its inhabitants and a reflection of the architect. Architecture that seeks to restore our essence and reconnect us with our own nature. Life flows, and we must flow with it; for Gabriel Rivera, this translates into an architectural duality: stillness and movement. It involves understanding the void around which everything is built and organized—a void understood as space and as a possibility for introspection—alongside the flow, the freedom of movement, of coming and staying.
