Sterotomic work of Alberto Campo Baeza

Moliner House

The Moliner House is a representation of stereotomic architecture based on the large mass of concrete used in the structure.  It displays a jointless nature and uses minimalist detailing.  The project was started in 2006  in Avda Spain.  The raised high walls created a stark white box, with little to no detail on the exterior.  The interior of the space was dug into the ground and trees were installed to mimic an intimate landscape.  It's not common that such minimal materials are used in such a mass volume form and Albertos structure seems to be a representation of stereotomic architecture.
