This book profiles the work of architect Manuel Bailo, founder of Bailo+Rull Architecture. His projects in Europe and America offer inspiration for the design and creation of urban public spaces, looking at the possibilities of spontaneous public spaces in addition to designed public space. The art program features color and b&w photos, drawings, illustrations, and images. --ProtoView Based on its contents, and the fact it's really two books in one - Public Catalyst and Catalysts Drawn - Esteve's interest in the city is wide-ranging, focused broadly on life and what can be done to catalyze it. The first book within a book is more academic, delving, for instance, into Werner Hegemann, Camillo Sitte, Edmund Bacon, and others that came before the author. Here we see the big picture, while the second book takes aim at the details, doing so through twenty beautifully illustrated case studies. Most of the examples are real (e.g. a shade structure designed by Enric Miralles and Carme Pin s), but the inclusion of a scene from Jacques Tati's Mon Oncle illustrates that inspiration can come from fiction as well as reality. --A Daily Dose of Architecture
