Celebrating Javier Carvajal Ferrer

(to  j. c. g.-v., whose friendship i  do not deserve, with gratitude).

 ("rules? said roark. 'here are my rules:  what can be done with one substance must never be done with another.  no two materials are alike.  no two sites on earth are alike.  no two buildings have the same purpose.  the purpose, the site, the material determine the shape.  nothing  can be beautiful unless it's made by one central idea, and the idea sets every detail.  a building is alive, like a man.  its integrity, its own truth, its one single theme, and to serve its own single purpose" ayn rand --  the fountainhead)

"Belleza expresiva sin eficacia de uso: eso es arte; eficacia de uso sin eficacia expresiva: eso es ingeniería; eficacia más expresión: eso es Arquitectura. Siempre he entendido que la Arquitectura no puede separarse de la voluntad de servicio. Servir dando eficacia, servir dando emoción y belleza. La Arquitectura es, en su sentido más profundo, eficacia significante."
