Summary:
Economic decline and social cuts have engendered widespread unease across the whole of the Iberian Peninsula.

This issue of AV Monographs concentrates its focus on Portugal, where there is yet an optimistic outlook for exceptional architecture which demonstrates both material quality and formal refrain. Included are texts by Luis Fernández-Galiano and Jorge Figueira, plus diverse projects like the Lisbon Oceanarium Extension by Pedro Campos Costa, Casa NuDi by Nuno Piedade Alexandre, and the Pedestrian Bridge in Covilhã by Carrilho da Graça & Afaconsult.

Facing economic, cultural and political crisis, Europe must seek sustainable urban solutions. Living together in collective housing, compact cities and well-integrated countries on a shared continent is the best course for future survival. Thus the importance of building types and urban models for better energy use is tantamount.

Featured architects include Dominique Perrault, Hild und K Architekten and AH Asociados, among others.
