In recent years, Carlos Ferraters architecture studio has regularly and continuously developed new avenues for formal expression. This collection of projects comprises a family of independent experiences, joined by a common logic of design approximation: Geometry as a means of approximating landscape and urban forms. The book is divided into three parts: The time of Geometry, Research Process and Ideographical Resources. This framework aims to define the conditions whereby the job of architecture is to move from geometry to space by means of construction.
Catalog published in conjunction with the exhibition “Sychronizing Geometry” a retrospective of the work by Carlos Ferrater’s Studio taking place in S. R. Crown Hall at the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago in September, 2006. Flippable, double-sided book with supplementary section: “Synchronizing Geometry: Ideographic Resources” at the back of the book.
