Arquitectura Viva 241 - Sancho-Madridejos

In the fertile formal laboratory of Juan Carlos Sancho and Sol Madridejos, the fold is an instrument with great potential in their quest to attain structural, spatial, and material coherence in a single sweeping gesture. Arquitectura Viva presents a selection of four Spanish works, from a small chapel to a large educational complex, concluding with a recent international project. The magazine's dossier features two museums that officially opened in recent months and which illustrate the trend of displaying collections in 'visitable storehouses,' free of exhibition criteria: the Musee de la Romanite in Narbonne, by Foster + Partners; and the Depot Boijmans Van Beuningen in Rotterdam, by MVRDV.
