Poetic spaces, surreal structures and dramatic visions. The extraordinary career of Ricardo Bofill is collected in this monograph, which reveals his inspiring approach to architecture, and to life.
Ricardo Bofill is one of the 20th century’s most unique architects and radical visionaries. His visions for urban and communal life challenged preconceived notions of shared space and proposed alternative styles of living.
This monograph explores his revolutionary approach by profiling his greatest projects like La Fábrica, Walden 7, La Muralla Roja or Abraxas. Spectacular new photography by Salva López, texts by experts like Nacho Alegre and Douglas Murphy as well as by Bofill himself are complemented with sketches and floor plans.
Bofill’s fantastic creations satisfy a longing for originality, personality and progressive ideals.
Book publishing is actively and constantly reimagined by Gestalten. An extensive range of titles that not only enriches the reader's life, but also promotes ongoing engagement with the surrounding creative landscape.
Gestalten’s origin story began with a focus on the aesthetic, particularly that of graphic design and, over the last two decades, the scope of both its content and its expertise has widened.
Today, using a myriad of observations of culture, people, art, and other intimate, inspirational informants, Gestalten documents and anticipates vital movements in architecture, visual culture, design & fashion, escapism, food & beverages, travel, and contemporary art.
