Imagining the evident
The referential book by Álvaro Siza on his own work, in its first English edition. Describing some of his projects, his expectations and struggles, references and decisions, this book is a fundamental contribution to the understanding of Álvaro Siza’s architectural thinking. The text is accompanied by an extensive set of drawings from his notebooks, an obstinate presence in Siza’s particular way of working, some of which never published before. A personal and fundamental testimony of one of the most celebrated living architects, covering the full range of design – from architecture to city planning, furniture and objects – in a must-read book for all interested in Art and Architecture. “potent not only for understanding Siza’s practice over many decades, but for undertaking architectural design or architectural criticism and history today.” — Barry Bergdoll

Addressing students and professionals alike, the book includes photographs of models, working drawings and pictures of the completed buildings.
