| Resumo: | [EN] In 1979, architects Félix Candela and Fernando Higueras started a collaboration that lasted until 1987. During this time, they designed a total of seven projects of which only one was finally built. One of the projects is a variation of the iconic inverted umbrella structure designed by Candela. If it had been built, it would have been the greatest span ever designed by the architect using this type of structure. Despite being two of the most important Spanish architects of the twentieth century, publications exploring the projects they carried out together and their collaboration in general have been scarce. This paper presents a compilation of theunpublished plans of the projects resulting from the collaboration between them, and also indicates the sourcesand the location of the rest of the original documents that would be needed for future research. |
