SynopsisFrom 2008 to 2010, Madrid-based architects Mansilla + Tunon taught at the Princeton University School of Architecture. The Mansilla + Tunon Studios 2008 - 2010: Between Rules and Constraints brings together the essential ideas of the studios held by the architects. The book focuses on the atmosphere of the studios through the lens of each discussed site: the Farnsworth House in Plano, Illinois, the Spanish Royal Collection Museum, and the Gran Via, both in Madrid, Spain. In addition, the book includes a series of photo essays by photographers Dean Kaufman, Luis Asin, and Luis Baylon, and texts by Stan Allen, Enrique Walker, Sarah Whiting, and Agustin Perez Rubio., From 2008 to 2010, Madrid based architects Luis M. Mansilla and Emilio Tunon held the Jean Labatut Visiting Professorship at the Princeton School of Architecture. More than a collection of student work, From Rules to Constraints is a wide ranging reflection on teaching, design practice, history and the city. Focusing on three sites at three distinct scales, this book examines the constraints of the architectural project--social, political, historical, and environmental--in order to create new rules for working. Examining both their teaching methods and Mansilla + Tunon's own design work, the book presents the design process as an ongoing conversation between the building and the environment, between freedom and limits, and between the decided and undecided.
