Santiago Calatrava

The Poetics of Movement

Alexander Tzonis
Photographs by Paolo Rosselli

Santiago Calatrava has a cultural vision that unifies art,
science and technology.

This book presents Calatrava's work in the context of contemporary architecture and society for the first time.
His technical projects are shown to spark off abstract sculptural essays, which in turn serve as a research laboratory for innovative engineering. The author traces Calatrava's influences and then focuses on 25 projects, including photographs, drawings and sketches.

Professor Alexander Tzonis holds the chair of Architectural Theory and Design Methods at the University of Technology of Delft and is Director of DKS (Design Knowledge Systems), a multi-disciplinary research center on Architectural Cognition.
