Product Description

In the work of Enric Miralles the site, whether natural landscape or urban grid, is always at the forefront of the design. In the Igualada Cemetery, the topographical order is framed by angular lines and trenches, yet the sloping concrete embankments, overhanging parapets and converging edges relate to the setting as the first perceived elements within the overall perspective of space. The disciplines of architecture and landscape are fused to create a place of tremendous sculptural force - a cemetery built in the European tradition where burial niches are ranked and stacked to form great funerary walls incised into the landscape. This book presents the cemetery in detail, using many working drawings and sketches showing the work in progress, and photography.

Architecture Book Description

About The Architect

Enric Miralles Moya (1955 – July 3, 2000) was a Spanish Catalan architect. He graduated from the School of Architecture of Barcelona (ETSAB) at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC) in 1978. After establishing his reputation with a number of collaborations with his first wife Carme Pinós, the couple separated in 1991. He later married fellow architect Benedetta Tagliabue, and the two practiced together as EMBT Architects. Miralles' largest work, the new Scottish Parliament Building, was unfinished at the time of his death. ~wiki

  In 1978, he completed his examinations at the Escola Tècnica Superior d'Arquitectura (ETSAB) in Barcelona. From 1973 to 1978 he worked in the architect's office of Albert Viaplana and Helio Piñón and whilst there — among other things — he was involved in the construction of the Plaça dels Països Catalans, the forecourt for the Estació de Sants

In 1984 after several architectural competition wins, he formed his own office in Barcelona with his first wife Carme Pinós, which they led together until 1991. Within the rising Spanish architecture scene of the late 1980s following the death of Francisco Franco, their unusual buildings attracted international attention. As a result, they received numerous commissions from Spain and overseas. After their separation, Miralles and Pinós continued to work in separate offices. In 1993 Enric Miralles formed a new practice with his second wife, the Italian architect Benedetta Tagliabue, under the name "EMBT Architects". She resumed the practice under his name after his death. The most important projects; the Scottish Parliament Building in Edinburgh and the multistoried building for the Spanish gas company Gas Natural in Barcelona, were only finished after his death . Enric Miralles died at the age of 45 as the result of a brain tumor. read more on wiki
