Summary: Alberto Campo Baeza, one of contemporary architectures most distinguished voices, is renowned for a body of work that exudes the power of radical simplicity. The clarity of architectural ideas expressed in his buildings have ranged in scale from such small but beautiful residential structures as the Turegano, Gaspar and De Blas houses, to cultural facilities such as Andalucias Museum of Memory in Granada, an addition to his earlier achievement, the Caja General Bank Headquarters. All share an uncompromising dedication to simple composition, and demonstrate the ways in which he so brilliantly deploys disciplined restraint to achieve architectural silence in the face of the clamour of the modern city.
