ARCHITECTURE

This publication compiles diverse projects where the principal characteristic of the site – the slope – requires singular architectural ideas and solutions. When the surface a building stands on inclines then this simple fact affects every detail: the relationships between domestic spaces change, distances and angles are altered and structures are necessarily realised differently. With over a thousand images and plans (including floor plans, elevations and sectional detail) this is an exceptionally detailed examination of such structures and the processes that go into building them.
High quality technical publication where a wide range of works made in Spain and Portugal are compiled. When the surface where buildings are inserted inclines, the relationships among the different domestic spaces change, the predictable verticality breaks down into pieces and privacy is achieved in a different manner. New questions and new possibilities are developed with a similar structure, where we find, descriptive brief, constructive brief, an extensive photographic report as well as all the necessary graphic information to understand the project (floors, elevations, sections, constructive sections and constructive details). The detailed study of each project together with the treatment and line weighing of every single plan are the hallmark of this Publishing Company
