                      Do the workgroups featured in this publication share a national context?
                      Some of them (the two in Barcelona) are not headed by people who were
                      born in Spain nor have a Spanish nationality.
                      They have assistants who
                      have been trained at universities around the world. The architects who
                      head these studios are part of a minority much closer to academia and
                      the exceptional project than to the generic architectural market.
                      Almost all of them have devoted part pf their time to publications and
                      teaching. This issue contains works by Arquitecto VLC, Arquitectos
                      Paredes Pedrosa, Estudio IP, Estudio JDS, Arquitectos López Rivera, and
                      cero9 Amid. The introductory essay is by Andrés Jaque.
