Architetrix is a minimalist architecture and design photography project of the building called Muralla Roja. Muralla Roja is a building designed and built by the architect Ricardo Bofill Levi. It is located in the La Manzanera urbanization, within the municipality of Calpe, in the province of Alicante, Spain. Its construction was completed in 1973, although according to the architect own words, its design began ten years earlier. The configuration of the building is a constructive aesthetic evocation, based on a series of patios connected to each other from where the houses are accessed, and on the roof terraces the solariums are distributed on different levels.

Santo Domingo de la Calzada, Spain (No. 5)

Plaza de España: It is the main square of the city, it is located behind the cathedral. Unlike other major squares, it does not occupy a central place in the urbanism of Santo Domingo. On the contrary, it is located to the north, bordering the outskirts, specifically with the Paseo de la Carrera or Haro road. One of its reasons may be that what we could consider as the original main square of the city is not this, but what we currently call Plaza del Santo. The square is created with the construction of the walls of the fourteenth century. It was for centuries the site of the market and the bullring. The paving is from the late twentieth century. In it, is the Town Hall; the building of the Corregimiento de Rioja on the east side, built in 1763, in whose lower part was the Royal Prison, which had been moved from the Plaza del Santo; and the building of the Alhóndiga, former place of sale and storage of grain, in it currently houses the municipal offices.

Town Hall: Built on the wall of the fourteenth century, closes the square on its north side, being its central axis the only gateway to the city that has reached our days. It is a baroque style building, rectangular with two heights. Especially noteworthy is the central body with a richly decorated semicircular arch that gives way to the door of the aforementioned wall. The main floor has, under a very ornate frieze, two enclosed holes joined by a continuous balcony. All this is topped with a belfry in an upper body that presents the Bourbon shield on which appears a pediment topped by a sculpture of the goddess Fama. Escorting the set, you can see two small finials that support the shields of the city.
