Back To Basics: Essential Experiences Arquitectura Viva SL 2013 no ISBN Acqn 22456 Pb 24x30cm 96pp 100ills 100col 18 An emphasis on materials often coincides with an interest in the local and primitive, suggesting resistance to globalisation.

Selected here are eight works from diverse cultural and climatic contexts that share material as a central theme. These include Kengo Kumas Yusuhara Marche in Kochi, Steilneset Memorial in Norway by Peter Zumthor, Ghents Market Hall by Robbrecht en Daem, and the Kantana Institute in Thailand. Also in this issue: Japan after Fukushima, the restoration of the Madrid Hippodrome, Segovias new University Campus, and more.
