Santiago Calatrava offers in his numerous buildings, engineering projects, sculptures and furniture designs, a cultural vision that unifies art, science and technology. This work presents the Spanish architect's oeuvre and ideas in the context of contemporary architecture and society. His demanding technical projects are shown to spark off highly abstract sculptural essays, which in turn serve as a research laboratory for the development of innovative engineering. After tracing the roots of Calatrava's design in Spanish traditions and 20th-century intellectual struggles, the author focuses on the development of major infrastructure projects and urban complexes where pragmatic efficiency and technical rationality are combined with engineering and aesthetics. The book discusses approximately 25 projects, including his most recent work, fully documented with photographs, drawings and sketches. Calatrava's work can be interpreted as a paradigm for contemporary design: this book shows that to achieve more integrated cities and landscapes, current boundaries between art, architecture and engineering must be blurred.

Zustand: Como nuevo. : Este libro es un estudio de la obra y las ideas del arquitecto español Santiago Calatrava. Tras trazar las raíces del diseño de Calatrava, el libro analiza aproximadamente 25 proyectos, que están documentados con fotografías, dibujos y bocetos. El libro explora la visión cultural de Santiago Calatrava, que unifica arte, ciencia y tecnología en sus numerosos edificios, proyectos de ingeniería, esculturas y diseños de mobiliario. La obra presenta la obra y las ideas del arquitecto español en el contexto de la arquitectura y la sociedad contemporáneas. Se muestra que sus exigentes proyectos técnicos desencadenan ensayos escultóricos muy abstractos, que a su vez sirven como laboratorio de investigación para el desarrollo de una ingeniería innovadora. Tras trazar las raíces del diseño de Calatrava en las tradiciones españolas y las luchas intelectuales del siglo XX, el autor se centra en el desarrollo de grandes proyectos de infraestructura y complejos urbanos donde la eficiencia pragmática y la racionalidad técnica se combinan con la ingeniería y la estética.

Zustand: as new. London :Thames & Hudson, 1999. Paperback. 139 pp. - Very few designers of this century-- a century dominated by specialization and fragmentation-- can be called universal, but Santiago Calatrava is one of these few. In his numerous buildings, engineering projects, sculptures, and furniture designs, this Spanish architect whose practice is based in Switzerland has developed a unique poetics of morphology that overlaps structure and movement. Combining art and science, technology and architecture, Calatrava's bridges and buildings create a sublime elegance in their urban contexts. With dynamic curves, leaning vertical elements, and mechanically operable roofs, they embody potential motion. In this book, Alexander Tzonis explores Calatrava's ''poetics of movement'' not only in the architect's large-scale work, but also in his drawings and sculptures.The book features thirty-five projects, fully documented with photographs, drawings, and sketches. Included are Calatrava's most recent works-- the Milwaukee Art Museum Addition and the Orient Station in Lisbon-- and his best known, from the Montjuic Tower to the Alameda Bridge.
