Campo Baeza Complete Works

Foreword by Richard Meier Introduction by Jesus Aparicio Interview by Manuel Blanco Epilogue by David Chipper Edited by Oscar Riera Ojeda
This monograph presents one of the most unique voices in contemporary architecture whose collection of built work makes a compelling case, with some help from Hisao Suzuki’s photography, for the power of radical simplicity. Included amongst the projects featured are the Andalucia Museum of Memory and Caja Granada, two contiguous buildings united in a quiet yet monumental about Granada, and its history, as well as other instant classics such as the Asencio Gaspar, and Turegano houses.
All share a basic dedication to simple composition with unadorned masses and show Baeza’s uncompromising exercise of disciplined restraint in achieving architectural silence, his laconic answer to the deafening noise of the contemporary city. The projects explored in the book span four decades of an international architectural practice. Contributions by Richard Meyer, Jesus Aparicio, Kenneth Frampton, and Manuel Blanco offer critical commentary on Baeza’s persistent quest for beauty and relevance by means of simplicity.

Eastwest Nabil Gholam Architects 
Foreword by Nicolas Véron
Texts by Warren Singh Bartlett and Nabil Gholam
Essay by Kenneth Frampton and Gökhan Karakus
Edited by Warren Singh Bartlett and Ana Corberó
Set against the backdrop of global architectural production, the work of the Lebanese architect Nabil Gholam and his associates defies easy classification. On the one hand it can be regarded as a competent, modern, global practice for which the legendary SOM is still a model. On the other, NGA are capable of creating works that possess a uniquely grounded, local character at a variety of scales, from one-off luxury villas to the occasional monumental project at an urban scale, as in their entry for the Jabal Omar International Design Competition, planned for Mecca in Saudi Arabia at the turn of the millennium. It is paradoxical that this prosperous, sophisticated practice should be located in what is still, despite its prosperity, the unstable and often violent environment of Beirut.

The Built Idea Alberto Campo Baeza
Authored by Alberto Campo Baeza
 Alberto Campo Baeza (born Valladolid, Spain, 1946) is one of the most important architects of the modern period. The Built Idea presents a series of seminal texts in which he conveys his most deeply-held architectural ideas and convictions, exploring and explaining his foundational influences and subjects such as the importance of light, the work of his contemporaries, and the future of architecture, as well as accounts of his own work and personal anecdotes from a rich and successful life in architecture. “To use words that express one’s intentions clearly is not just a convenience for architects. One wants to let people know the meaning behind the things that are being made. My aim in publishing these texts is precisely that.”

The House of the Infinite Alberto Campo Baeza (Masterpiece Series)
Hardcover
 We have built the most radical house we have ever made, an in nite plane facing the in nite sea. A house facing the Atlantic Ocean, at the water’s edge on a beach of Cadiz, like a piece of earthly paradise, where the Romans once lived in nearby Bolonia. We built a powerful podium in Roman travertine whose upper horizontal plane becomes the protagonist of the space. Inside the podium, underneath this platform like a temenos, is the house. Above and behind the stony platform, we have erected stone walls to protect us from the strong prevailing winds. As if it were an acropolis. A temenos where the gods descend to converse with humans and toast with Sherry on this plane on high looking out onto the in nite sea. The house of the infinite.
