Summary:
'AV Proyectos 111' dedicates its dossier to TEd’A arquitectes, the Palma de Mallorca-based studio led by Irene Pérez and Jaume Mayol, whose projects reinterpret traditional building techniques. The ensuing chapter covers the competitions to design the Joint Research Centre in Sevilla, with BIG’s winning project as well as the second and third prizes. Also included six examples of interventions on heritage in Spain, which avoid altering the relationship between the remains and their environment. The construction section features the sports park designed by MAD Architects in Quzhou, where the stadium, the first element to be completed, is gradually unveiled as a light floating structure from the different paths that lead to the venue.

Summary:
After the traumatic experience of the previous year, 2021 was the year of overcoming the pandemic and of preparing for a long-awaited return to normalcy. The AV Monographs Yearbook goes over the most important events of the period, gathering twenty-four buildings that represent the best architecture constructed in Spain. Aside from a few large-scale works, like the Córdoba Library by Paredes Pedrosa or the Celta FC Sports City by Irisarri Piñera, the selection clearly reflects how the climate crisis has become a top priority for architects, especially the younger ones, who choose sustainable materials like wood, used in the apartments by Peris Toral and by Bosch Capdeferro, in the fire station by Josep Ferrando, or in the small social pavilion by Behark.

Summary:
Vector Architects, founded by Gong Dong (Beijing, 1972) has become one of the key architectural offices in China. Their work is distinguished by its careful attention to context, a deep respect for landscape and the natural environment, the contemporary reinterpretation of Chinese building traditions, and the conscientious use of natural light as a project tool. With these ingredients the studio envisions and designs intimate and emotional spaces, as those that can be found in the sixteen projects, all of them in China, featured in this monograph. The list includes works like the Alila Yangshuo Hotel, the Seashore Library and Chapel, the Captain’s House, and the Changjiang Art Museum.

Summary:
If there is no doubt that "size matters", and that scale is one of the main factors in architecture, it is also true that the propositional interest of a building is independent from its size. To support this argument, the sixteen houses selected here represent the very different strategies and dimensions that can address domestic space. With size as organising element,(...)

Summary:
If there is no doubt that "size matters", and that scale is one of the main factors in architecture, it is also true that the propositional interest of a building is independent from its size. To support this argument, the sixteen houses selected here represent the very different strategies and dimensions that can address domestic space. With size as organising element, the issue starts with a minimum shelter of less than 30 square meters in southern Australia, and includes examples that range from careful interventions on heritage to daring typological experiments, ending at the Chilean Andes with a large house-studio of over 2,000 square meters.

Experimentation and dialogue are central to the creative process of Fuensanta Nieto and Enrique Sobejano, and in their works light, matter, and space are as intimately connected as they are to landscape, history, and architecture.

Summary:
Experimentation and dialogue are central to the creative process of Fuensanta Nieto and Enrique Sobejano, and in their works light, matter, and space are as intimately connected as they are to landscape, history, and architecture. This is clear from the texts in which the architects themselves interpret each one of the twenty-two projects in the monograph at hand, a double volume which covers their career over the last twelve years, a fertile period in which the office, from its studios based in Madrid and Berlin, has strengthened its presence outside Spain, with buildings as the Arvo Pärt Center in Estonia, the Archive of the Avant-Garde, or Montblanc Haus, both in Germany.
