El ojo que escribe
A species in extinction, a fragile koala still existing even though the ecosystems it thrived in no longer do, architecture criticism has for a while now been facing the question of how to die. Some part of it will take leave of us discreetly, bequea

Transformations
Arquitectura Viva transforms itself, becoming monthly and bilingual starting with this issue, and it seemed appropriate to mark the occasion with a crop of transformed architectures. Eighteen projects in total, all of them in Spain, which adapt exist

Parallel Readings
Las revistas de arquitectura recuerdan el palpitar de la primera enamorada. Sometidas a un ciclo recurrente, mensual o bimestral, su llegada provoca en el lector el estado de ansiedad y alegría del amor iniciático. Colman nuestra ambición de descubri
