About
In this first stage, the catalogue focuses on the modern and contemporary architecture designed and built between 1832 –year of construction of the first industrial chimney in Barcelona that we establish as the beginning of modernity– until today.
The project is born to make the architecture more accessible both to professionals and to the citizens through a website that is going to be updated and extended. Contemporary works of greater general interest will be incorporated, always with a necessary historical perspective, while gradually adding works from our past, with the ambitious objective of understanding a greater documented period.
The collection feeds from multiple sources, mainly from the generosity of architectural and photographic studios, as well as the large amount of excellent historical and reference editorial projects, such as architectural guides, magazines, monographs and other publications. It also takes into consideration all the reference sources from the various branches and associated entities with the COAC and other collaborating entities related to the architectural and design fields, in its maximum spectrum.
Special mention should be made of the incorporation of vast documentation from the COAC Historical Archive which, thanks to its documental richness, provides a large amount of valuable –and in some cases unpublished– graphic documentation.
The rigour and criteria for selection of the works has been stablished by a Documental Commission, formed by the COAC’s Culture Spokesperson, the director of the COAC Historical Archive, the directors of the COAC Digital Archive, and professionals and other external experts from all the territorial sections that look after to offer a transversal view of the current and past architectural landscape around the territory.
The determination of this project is to become the largest digital collection about Catalan architecture; a key tool of exemplar information and documentation about architecture, which turns into a local and international referent, for the way to explain and show the architectural heritage of a territory.

Aeronautical Cultural Centre at Barcelona-El Prat Airport
Godia & Barrio Arquitectes, Berta Barrio Uría, Sergi Godia i Fran, Eloi Juvillà i Ballester
The museum is equipped with a program of 3200m2 spread over the ground floor and mezzanine and is organised in two structural spans of 28 and 15.5 m. Under the biggest one, there is a large exhibition room of old airplanes and a restoration workshop. The attic is part of the exhibition route and acts as a viewpoint over the great hall. The other hallway contains the assembly hall, the administration and the warehouses. The building, with a rectangular plan, is inspired by the image of hangars. In its outer skin, the prefabricated concrete panels are slightly out of place, breaking the flatness of the façade and generating a game of light and shadow that varies throughout the day. On the main façade, this concrete body rises as if it were an airplane taking off to leave a glazed strip that allows you to observe the airplanes on display. -
