En el siglo XIII, con la instalación de los nazaríes, la Alhambra se convirtió en una ciudad palatina. Pensada como la morada de la nueva dinastía y como espacio de desarrollo de su poder, fue una auténtica madina, con todos los elementos que conformaban en aquella época un núcleo urbano: su parte militar o Alcazaba; la zona palatina, ordenada en su recinto amurallado, un rico mundo periurbano, en el que la vida agrícola era muy importante. Todo el conjunto fue posible por la traída de agua desde el Darro, voluntad expresa del primer rey nazarí, Muhammad I. Las fases de su desarrollo muestran la política edilicia de los emires granadinos y el avance del núcleo por los espacios naturales, a los que transforma.

Since the early twentieth century, Latin America has been home to some of the most compelling archictecture - from the large-scale and otherworldly civic structures of the Brazilian Oscar Niemeyer to the more intimate work of Mexico''s Luis Barragan. In her new book LATIN AMERICAN HOUSES, Mercedes Daguerre shows that this tradition of architectural innovation lives on in the work of such contemporary architects as 2006 Pritzker Prize winner Paulo Mendes da Rocha (Brazil), Mathias Klotz (Chile), Angelo Bucci (Argentina), and LBC Arquitectos (Mexico), among others. Focusing on one-family houses that have been built over the past decade, this lively new title explores the elegance and innovation with which today''s Latin American architects evolve their modernist heritage. In some cases, as with Chilean Smiljan Radic Clarke''s Pite House - a dramatic concrete bunker that cantilevers over a rough Pacific shoreline - the lineage is clear, as are the materials and strategies used to contend with often inhospitable locations. Others, like Mexican architect Michel Rojkind''s bright red "ribbon" PR 34 House, reveal forms better known in such places as Japan. Wherever their location or material, however, the nineteen houses presented in Daguerre''s new book are indication that Latin American architects are not content resting on their laurels.

Coincidiendo con el creciente movimiento social que persigue introducir la conciencia ambiental en la sociedad europea, ha aparecido en la escena de la arquitectura catalana y española una nueva generacion de arquitectos que proyectan y construyen edificios incorporando estrategias de diseño pasivo que tienden a reducir el enorme consumo de energia y disminuir las emisiones contaminantes, utilizan tecnicas que reducen el consumo de agua y la produccion de residuos e incluso generan energia a partir del uso activo de las energias renovables. "la nueva sensibilidad ambiental presenta una seleccion de planteamientos urbanos, proyectos y obras realizados en Catalunya y España en los ultimos cinco años con "esta nueva sensibilidad ambiental que, como se puede ver a traves de un recorrido previo intencionado por la historia de la arquitectura, siempre sera nueva, sin haber llegado nunca a ser vieja. Clipmedia Comunicacion ha sido la encargada de crear, realizar y producir este libro, a partir de la idea de Ezequiel Uson, director del Master de la UPC "Arquitectura y Sostenibilidad: herramientas de diseño y tecnicas de control ambiental".
