We have just received a pair of new issues of the beautiful El Croquis from Madrid.
El Croquis 147 – Toyo Ito, 2005 – 2009
El Croquis 148 – Collective Experiments
✍ 1982 (2010): Fernando Márquez Cecilia & Richard Levene
Founded in 1982, El Croquis (‘the Sketch’ in Spanish) is consistently the most beautiful architectural periodical published anywhere in the world. With editorial in both Spanish and English, El Croquis examines the work of the world’s notable architects in an ongoing series of beautifully designed, bimonthly hardcover monographs. Unique to the publication is the comprehensive manner in which each architect’s projects are documented, with plans, sketches, and insights into all aspects of the design process. It is this level of detail, coupled with Hisao Suzuki’s gorgeous photography, that has made El Croquis BUILT’s most requested publication – despite the somewhat painful price.
In addition to the current issue, we will be stocking some of El Croquis’ most popular back issues including those on Rem Koolhaas and OMA, Herzog & de Meuron, Steven Holl, and Tadao Ando.
