| description | Juan Daniel Fullaondo defined Antonio Fernández Alba as "a man of method and culture", an architect who accompanied the process of his architectural development with an intense display of culture (1970, p. 3). The intellectual dimension of this architect has meant that his architecture and his written works, as well as his teaching labours, have been interpreted as the conscious evolution of a particular methodological investigation. So, the graphic expression of his architecture cannot be understood as merely the result of experimentation based on improvisation. In this study, I propose an aesthetic analysis of his architectural plans, in which the systematic investigation of a representative technique is shown that explored the formalization of his projects, through the contrasting duality of black and white that moves toward a coherent configuration of his architectural design. |
