Juan Navarro Baldeweg: Novartis Campus - Fabrikstrasse 18
Juan Navarro Baldeweg is regarded as one of the world's most interesting representatives of today's architectural avant-garde. In the mid-1970s, Baldeweg began to focus on light, space and gravitation, gaining insights that would become the cornerstones of his architectural word. He is also a multifaceted artist. Besides his architectural work, Baldeweg has repeatedly turned to painting as a creative outlet.

Navarro Baldeweg
A unique and multi-faceted talent, Juan Navarro Baldeweg is one of the two most highly acclaimed Spanish architects living at the start of the 21st century. Also an artist, his paintings have been exhibited at galleries and art fairs all over the world. In this text he reveals his views on art and artitecture, and presents his own paintings, photographs and drawings. Architectural projects are accompanied by sketches, plans, situation maps, axonometric drawings and photographs. It includes a commentary by J.M. Bonet, Director of the IVAM Modern Art Museum in Valencia and provides insight into Baldeweg's character and artistic career. The book was designed by Baldeweg himself.

The first part of this publication is to present a collection of exemplary five houses that evinced explicit relationships with pre-existing trees. The five twentieth century projects are: La Casa (B. Rudofsky, 1969), Cottage Ca...
Juan Navarro Baldeweg
Published on the occasion of the exhibition 'One Zodiac. Juan Navarro Baldeweg' at the Museo ICO in Madrid, which was designed and curated by the Spanish architect himself, this monograph follows its conceptual structure as a ring of constellations constituted by the ties established between the various pieces presented. It comprises sketches, plans, models, collages and photographs, and is accompanied by a number of his own artistic pieces. In this way, the architect seeks to express the means and determination behind a career that spans more than 40 years. Besides the works themselves, the volume includes an in-depth essay by Simón Marchán Fiz.
