Moneo Brock's Two Decades of Work Featured

A new publication chronicles nearly two decades of architectural and design projects by the international firm Moneo Brock, founded in 1993 and based in Madrid since 2002.

The 320-page book showcases built works from 2007 to 2026, including urban infrastructure, educational facilities, leisure spaces, homes, and object design, with projects completed in Spain, Mexico, Colombia, and the Dominican Republic.

Three essays analyze the firm's work: Stan Allen discusses their engagement with public space and the environment; Manuel Blanco examines their practice through Vitruvian principles and sustainability; and Marisa Santamaría explores their object design and the cultural space _2B.

Moneo Brock's architecture emphasizes materiality, light, and landscape, using elements like lattices, coral stone, glass block, and concrete to define spaces and connect interiors with exteriors. Their designs respond to local climates and contexts, balancing abstraction with sensory detail and a public focus.
