Catalonian architects Rafael Aranda, Carme Pigem and Ramon Vilalta were selected as the Pritzker Architecture Prize Laureates in 2017.
Along with a lengthy citation from the jury came a selection of works from the architects’ portfolio which were hand-picked as representative of their design philosophy and strategy.
The projects represent the architects’ commitment to place and its narrative and demonstrate what Jury Chair, Glenn Murcutt described as “uncompromising architecture of a poetic level”.
The projects are listed in chronological order:
