Description: "On-Site: New Architecture in Spain highlights thirty-five projects that are or soon will be in construction throughout Spain, presented against a backdrop of eighteen recently completed buildings. This surge of creativity stretches from the Canary Islands to the Mediterranean to the Pyrenees, and can be seen in designs ranging from a single-family house - the universal crucible for radical experimentation - to what was until recently the largest construction site in Europe, Madrid's Barajas Airport Terminals. Such diversity is also evident in those designing this new landscape, from Spanish masters Rafael Moneo, Enric Miralles, and Alberto Campo Baeza to architects from abroad, including Zaha Hadid, Toyo Ito, and Jean Nouvel, as well as a number of emerging practitioners."--BOOK JACKET
