Cordoba . Spain

An international competition to design a new form of Architecture centre to inspire and relate to the historical and contemporary city context. The design proposals mirror the many historical layers of Cordoba: the Moorish grid of 30 degrees, the geometry of Roman terraces and steps, and the Islamic geometry and decoration.
