Julio Cano Lasso - Natures

Spanish architect Julio Cano Lasso (1920–1996) was celebrated for his rational and austerely engineered buildings as well as his commitment to designing social housing and urban infrastructure. Lasso’s buildings are practical, modern, and immediately recognisable for their bare-bones aesthetic. He was in the real sense of the word an “eclectic”, fusing diverse sources and periods in his built works. Featuring previously unpublished texts by authors such as William J.R. Curtis, Juhani Pallasmaa, Iñaki Ábalos, and Juan Navarro Baldeweg, as well as archival images complemented by recent photographs by Iwan Baan, ‘Natures’ proudly presents Cano Lasso’s legacy.
