Individual academic research in the Berlage Center for Advances Studies in Architecture and Urban Design, 2016Gimnasio Maravillas
“This building was born in 1962 almost on its own. Taken up as we were with development difficulties, how to make the best of a bad site, and economic problems, we had little time to worry about a specific Architecture, which is why the building does not really have any architecture at all. Or perhaps that is an architecture in itself. Perhaps. If we got involved in that, we would get embroiled in the architecture yes, architecture no debate.” Alejandro De La Sota
