Álvaro Siza in Detail, vol.1

This is the first volume of the book that stands as the absolute technical reference on the work of Álvaro Siza. A book revealing the secrets of one of the greatest geniuses in architecture of all time. An editorial project of exceptional complexity and painstaking detail. Every aspect and piece of content was developed and verified at every possible level over many years, in an effort to honour, as faithfully as possible, the excellence and mastery of Siza Vieira. Three housing projects are presented – each with distinct characteristics at various levels – explored primarily through details and construction processes.

Upon looking at the book, while being filmed, Siza remarked:

"Well, I am amazed at the quality with which this book is made in all aspects, the presentation, the design of the book, but also and above all the rigor with which it is done . Being a book of details, I have never seen one published with the rigour with which this one is (...). Truly, this book is a treasure. "
