Description
This beautifully appointed monograph features stunning full-colour photographs and richly detailed plans and diagrams showcasing the work of Spanish architect Luis Vidal and his studio, Luis Vidal + Architects. Renowned writer and international architecture expert Philip Jodidio provides valuable insights into the work of Vidal and eloquently narrates the stories of 14 distinctive projects across a wide international region.
The projects in the stunning volume, ranging from private residences and urban buildings to hospitals, airports, and educational and cultural centres, have become a world reference in architecture, design, and construction. Among the selected works are the award-winning Terminal 2 (The Queen's Terminal) at Heathrow Airport in London, Matta Sur Community Center in Santiago de Chile, and Loyola University Campus in Seville. The monograph also features an intensely personal endeavour for Vidal-a private residence that encapsulates much of the thinking that has made Vidal's work so successful across the world.
