Description

A new generation of architects has emerged in Spain, consonant with and supportive of the growing environmental awareness in European society. With Spain's hot climate and worries regarding desertification this is not surprising. These architects plan and build using design strategies to reduce water consumption and waste production and to actively generate renewable energies.

This title presents 32 of the most environmentally aware projects of recent times, including Carlos Ferrater's Botanical Garden of Montjuc in Barcelona and Western Beach Promenade in Benidorm, the Spanish Pavilion at the Expo Zaragoza 2008 by Mangado and Manteca, the Habitat Hotel in Barcelona by Geli, Acconci and Ohtake and Rafael de La-Hoz's new head offices of Endesa and Telefnica in Madrid. Technically descriptive text is bilingual in English and Spanish, and there are plenty of good quality images and plans. The book also includes essays discussing the current state and future of Spanish architecture.
