Mateo Atlas
This bold and impeccably designed book considers renowned architect Josep Lluis Mateo's most recent works and projects in Germany, the Netherlands, and Spain. For Mateo, "a project always sets out to pose an idea", and this book surveys in detail, with photos and contributions by several authorities as well as the architect himself, how Mateo's ideas make themselves manifest. The multiplicity and complexity of Mateo's refined architectural sensibility is nowhere more conveyed than in this book.

On Building
Josep Lluís Mateo (born 1949) is one of Spain's--and Europe's--most prolific and visible architects, as energetic as a teacher and lecturer as he is an architect. Mateo has designed corporate headquarters, housing units, office blocks and hotels throughout Western Europe, and has also renovated urban centers in Gerona (Spain) and Castelo Branco (portugal). this volume looks back at nearly 30 years of Mateo's built structures, as portrayed by the architectural photographer Adrià Goula. As well as buildings from the 80s and 90s, it also looks at his most important projects of the past few years, from the Banc Sabadell Headquarters renovation (2004) and the Factory office building in Boulogne-Billancourt, France (2010) to the PGGM Headquarters in Zeist, Holland (2011) and the Catalonian Film Theater in Barcelona (2011). Interspersed among Goula's photographs are Mateo's observations and musings on architecture.

Occasions
Josep Llus Mateo is one of Spain's most influential architects in architecture today. This book brings together his recent projects, his influences, his references together with material from interviews and a wealth of images. It is, in a nutshell, his work philosophy. Conversations, reflections and projects completed in the last five years are presented as realities and actions, interpreted through this concept, which can be contemplated as infinity of individual forms of contacting with reality and acting upon it. For Josep Llus Mateo, the crux of this work is to analyze, from the perspective of his unique work, the state of issues and situations today in architecture and to interact accordingly with exterior space.
