A man (evidently the architect Mies van der Rohe), stands in a room in a glass-and-steel building. This is the scene that author Ricardo Daza uses for his investigation into the man, the room, the building, and what the architect is looking at.

This fascinating study of van der Rohe is illustrated with 160 duotones.

En las páginas de este número de la revista CASAS INTERNACIONAL nos encontraremos con 12 ejercicios ejemplares vinculados a la región de Extremadura, que muestran lecciones de arquitectura que van más allá de la temática, se trata de ejemplos que aportan valores de los que aprender, en los que podremos reconocer temas invariables y eternos de la arquitectura a la vez que aportan referencias que serán replicables en otras obras y en otros autores en el futuro. Esta condición de la replicabilidad es fundamental para el reconocimiento de los valores de estos proyectos.

Architectural study on the religious buildings of collective character built by the Jewish community of Buenos Aires in the 19t and 20th centuries and where the synagogues are the best examples. Their choices of architectural styles or languages responded to the historic moment when these buildings were constructed and respond to the preferences of each group according to their origin or its constructors or architects. The study analyses their morphology, mostly monumental, outside the city limits, and loaded inside and outside with ornaments and visible symbols of Judaism.
