The sixteen articles included here, published over the past three decades, run through the fertile career of Rafael Moneo. Preceded by a brief biography that will help the reader situate in his trajectory the various buildings mentioned, the sequence of texts begins with what was the prologue to the monograph on his work that AV published in 1992, and closes with two of the architect’s own reflections on his intellectual journey and the evolution of his oeuvre. The remaining articles tackle in detail projects like the Pilar and Joan Miró Foundation, the Illa of Barcelona, the annex to Murcia City Hall, the Kursaal of San Sebastián, the Cathedral of Los Angeles, or the Bank of Spain in Madrid, and use Moneo’s academic facet to point out lessons inherent in each of his buildings, from the Bankinter main offices or the museum in Mérida, which he himself has explained in articles and books, being as he is, above all, a professor.
