Office of Architecture in Barcelona
This book presents and analyses the career of architect Carlos Ferrater since the creation of his new studio calledÊOAB (Office of Architecture in Barcelona). With the arrival of young architects to the team, Êthe activity of OAB is not only deployed in the execution of construction projects, but how it is also complemented and enriched by going into depth in other fields such as teaching and academic research. OAB draws on the collaborative nature of Carlos FerraterÕs previous studio, incorporating new ways of understanding the contributions of each team member to generate richer, more varied, and flexible projects. Their most relevant projects are the Beach Promenade in Benidorm, the Mandarin Hotel, the Zaragoza-Delicias Station, House A and Roca Barcelona Gallery, among many others. Recent works and projects presented by means of extensive photoreportages, plans, drawings and QR codes which link the printed matter and the digital world.
Geometric Taxonomy
Geometric Taxonomy gets closer to the geometries of Carlos Ferrater and OAB that are present in timeless architecture, those that are explicit in the great treatises, those that dazzled us with “the correct and magnificent wise play of forms under the light”, the elemental forms that inspired modernity a hundred years ago.
Carlos Ferrater
The first complete monograph on the career of Carlos Ferrater. Carlos Ferrater's early buildings showed how the expression of modern architecture -- with its abstraction, repetition, transparency and use of industrial materials -- could be brought into line with Mediterranean classicism, with the rigor of the composition. Before setting up in 2006, along with Xavier Martí, Lucía Ferrater and Borja Ferrater, the Office of Architecture in Barcelona (OAB), Carlos Ferrater developed an intense and prolonged professional career on his own since 1971, with his advanced project for the Instant City. Now we present this first and therefore complete monograph on the unique career of this Catalan architect, Carlos Ferrater, awarded the 2009 National Architecture Award by the Spanish Ministry of Housing for his overall career and since 2011 member of the Royal Institute of British Architects (International RIBA Fellowship). The book reflects Carlos Ferrater professional practice, having proved his worth in many projects of enormous relevance and distinction.
Taxonomía Geométrica
Geometric Taxonomy gets closer to the geometries of Carlos Ferrater and OAB that are present in timeless architecture, those that are explicit in the great treatises, those that dazzled us with “the correct and magnificent wise play of forms under the light”, the elemental forms that inspired modernity a hundred years ago.
OAB
OAB draws on the collaborative nature of the Carlos Ferrater previous studio, incorporating new ways of understanding the contributions of each team member to generate richer and more varied, prepared and flexible projects. The creation of this new platform attempts to address the challenges that contemporary architecture has raised in intellectual, social, technological, and environmental spheres. The contents are organized as a collection of chapters that turn the spotlight on both projects and recently built works. These convey a willingness to work in different scenarios, expanding and enriching the range of proposals in the pursuit of new avenues of formal expression. The book covers the theoretical aspects of each project, focusing on innovation, research, and the application of new technologies. At the same time, as we explore each project's development, emphasis is placed upon context, the building's objectives, and the social roots of the architect's work.
