Málaga hoy, laboratorio de ideas para una ciudad soñada: Megalomanía, proyectos-estrella y arquitectura del business

Abstract

And after the storm... the building resumes! As macroeconomic figures indicate the end of the recession and the beginning of a new period of expansion, public institutions and private companies once again initiate architectural propositions and lead urban projects that where left unfnished. Málaga and its province also succumb to these great architectural ambitions. Their esthetic configurations will make it possible to study in depth the roots of these projects, unveiling their infuences, derivations and perversions. We are offering a virtual tour of a Málaga that, although does not exist yet, can be analyzed through rough drafts, models, visual presentations and descriptive reports. Whether all of these should be regarded as innovative or treated as echoes of past times will be considered at the end of the study.
