As every year, the Spain Yearbook 2016 gathers the best buildings completed in Spain during the past twelve months: a selection of 24 works that come to confirm the good health of Spanish architecture, in spite of the crisis that still persists in the construction sector. The volume includes works like the Royal Collections Museum by Tuñón & Mansilla, the Giner de los Ríos Foundation by Amid_cero9, and the new BBVA headquarters by the Swiss Herzog & de Meuron. In this year’s selection, prominent figures like Rafael Moneo, Francisco Mangado, Nieto & Sobejano, Josep Lluís Mateo, Víctor López Cotelo and Carlos Ferrater appear alongside new young teams, like the Sevillians that form BaKpak, the Cáceres office Losada García, the Barcelona team Calderón-Folch-Sarsanedas, and the Madrid studio CómoCrearHistorias. The Yearbook also features the twelve most noteworthy international buildings of 2015, and is rounded off with the usual sections: news of the year through press covers, and the chronicles of the main distinctions and disappearances.
