Teatro Móvil

Resumen del Libro

Taking as a starting point a design for a mobile theater made at the Architectural Association of London between 1970 and1971 by Spanish architect Javier Navarro de Zuvillaga (born 1942), this book traces the architectural counterculture of that time and the relations with the alternative performing arts. Architect Javier Navarro de Zuvillaga (1942) graduated in 1968 at Madrid School of Architecture. During the academic year 1970-1971 he travelled from Madrid to London thanks to a grant of the British Council to complete his postgraduate training at the Architectural Association. There he designed a building called Mobile Theater. It was a theatrical device composed of several 8 x 2,5 meters trucks carefully designed, which contained all the building elements needed to shape a space for the performing arts or other collective uses. The assembly time —estimated for four workers— was six and a half hours. This project was internationally showed and published between 1971 and 1975, but was never built. This book intends to release this project, largely ignored by canonical historiography, and to culturally place it in time and space: the agitated city of London in 1971. After the convulsions of May 1968, architectural counterculture rearmed on very different fronts, from the disciplinary rally to the guerilla positions. This architectural design accounts for these events, since it had a temporal development that goes beyond its mere conception as an artifact. The long and frustrated process for construction —1969 to 1976— calls for a particular intra-history, which this books will tell.

La financiacion de la vivienda para la clase media

A través de este libro conoceremos el verdadero déficit habitacional de nuestro país, el que crece anualmente por aumento demográfico y obsolescencia del parque habitacional, a pesar de las viviendas que se construyen por iniciativa privada y con fondos públicos. La propuesta, orientada a la clase media, que alcanza al 40% de la población argentina, se basa en tres principios: 1) que la financiación de las viviendas sea aportada por inversores privados (que ven en los ladrillos la salvaguarda de su capital, pero que invierten sólo en unidades "premium", saturando ese mercado) a...

Diseños geométricos en los mosaicos de Écija (Sevilla)

This volume focusses on the mosaics and geometric designs from Ecija, the ancient Roman Astigi, the capital of the Conventus Astigitanus, which is one of four conventus iuridici that made the Roman Baetica.

Arquitectura y desarrollo urbano de Cantabria en el siglo XIX

Este completo trabajo, realizado con una moderna metodología y desde aspectos pocas veces contemplados en profundidad, sorprende por lo novedoso de su planteamiento, fuera de unas coordinadas meramente tipológicas, biográficas o cronológicas como viene siendo usual en la mayoría de los estudios españoles del siglo XIX.

Richard Neutra

Revisión de la arquitectura de Richard J. Neutra desde unos presupuestos teóricos que apuntan a la arquitectura como resultado de un proceso de creación natural, entendida tanto en su acepción de perteneciente a la Naturaleza como en aquella otra que habla de una cierta sencillez de la misma.
