In conjunction with the fortieth anniversary of the death of architect José Antonio Coderch (Barcelona, 1913–1984), one of his daughters, Ana María Coderch Giménez, speaks in this video about the visibility of his archive and the significance and validity of his architecture. 

Following the disruption that occurred in the aftermath of the Spanish Civil War, avant-garde architecture in Spain began to make headway in the 1950s through a group of young architects, notable among them Coderch. He oversaw many of the projects that are key to understanding and appreciating modern Spanish architecture: four decades encompassing a broad array of building types, for instance single-family detached houses, large housing complexes and buildings for offices, colleges and universities, and all with eye-catching results.
