Résumé:
Under the title ‘Community Care’, AV Proyectos 128 features six works that cater to specific needs through an attentive and sensitive architecture that prioritizes a collective approach, as show the centers designed by Mae Architects, Vivas Arquitectos, or Dorte Mandrup. Paz Martín, architect and expert in the field, introduces the dossier with an essay that analyzes how assistance can shape the project strategy. Along the same lines, in an interview with the magazine the architect and professor Izaskun Chinchilla talks about the city of care and how the buildings that compose it are not just hospitals and clinics. In the process section, the complex by Herzog & de Meuron in North Zealand is an example of how to depart from traditional hospital building typologies. The issue also analyzes the high-rise construction boom in Albania, with proposals by MVRDV, Valerio Olgiati, and Bofill Taller de Arquitectura, among other firms.

Résumé:
The Mexicans Colectivo C733 have found in the ideas of Eladio Dieste a constant source of inspiration: in their a rational approach to the use of materials, their respect for human effort, and their way of understading the project as a perfectly orchestrated symphony. This philosophy has enabled them to build more than fifty projects across Mexico in just five years, in the context of an ambitious government strategy to improve infrastructures and public spaces in vulnerable contexts. Thanks to a millimetric coordinatoin and a shared view of social innovation and sustainability, C733 has managed to turn each intervention into an example of architecture committed to the environment and the community. This issue features a selection of fifteen projects that reflect the diversity, scale, and impact of their work.

''AV Proyectos 129'' explores the architectural potential of colour at different scales, and three exhibitions in Madrid – reviewed by Luis Fernández-Galiano – serve as the introductory frame for a series of projects that are examples of this versatility: the detailed domestic intervention of Beatriz Ramo and Bernd Upmeyer, the unique housing by TEST, Wiki World, and selgascano, and the large-scale works by Padilla Nicás and BIG. Along this line, the architect and interior designer Javier Jiménez Iniesta, of Studio Animal, talks with ''AV Proyectos'' about his defense of chromatism as a project tool and not just an aesthetic whim.

Résumé:
This edition is dedicated to the work of the Swiss firm Christ & Gantenbein, and in particular the material aspects of their architecture. Emanuel Christ and Christoph Gantenbein opened their office in Basel in 1998, immediately after completing their studies at ETH Zurich. A chronological overview of their fundamental works since is provided, from the pioneering expansion of the Swiss National Museum to recent proposals for art museums in Barcelona and Antwerp. Accompanied by a text by Reto Geiser, it offers reflections on the intellectual intensity and geometric perseverance with which the architects approach their interventions, regardless of scale, function, or material.

Résumé:
The house is a fertile ground for architectural experimentation: a space for innovation where technical solutions, aesthetic alternatives, and new ways of dwelling are tried out. AV Monographs 276 gathers sixteen projects built in diverse geographical and cultural contexts, organized around for key materials – wood, earth, concrete, and metal – which, when combined, expand the expressive and constructive possibilities of each one of them. From the vernacular to the experimental, from the Alpine cabin to the urban dwelling, these houses show how material becomes an expressive tool, capable of linking up with the context, the climate, and the landscape.

Résumé:
Experimental and radical, material and gestural are adjectives that could define the suggestive projects of the studio led by Anne Holtrop (Netherlands, 1977). On the border between art and architecture, his work avoids typological reference and is built from unexpected elements: topography, trail layouts, material molds, textures extracted from everyday objects, or traces of natural processes that become the starting point for architectural definition. AV Monographs presents this intuitive practice through a selection of works and projects – with an introduction by Adrian Lahoud –, which take stock too of the life course of their author: from the beginnings at his home country to the move to the Persian Gulf.

Résumé:
For Ricardo Flores and Eva Prats, their architectural practice is approached through drawing – meticulous and meditative to the point of fixation. This is how they describe it in this issue, which explores their unique design process, featuring their projects, drawings, and models, and covering more than 25 years of work. The magazine is organised into four sections, shedding light on a process of thinking in pencil that they pursue uninterruptedly, whether in their projects or in their classes. Full of insightful and intense lessons, the array of projects is accompanied by texts from architects Jorge Otero-Pailos and Jan De Vylder, who decipher these musings of sketches and tracings.
