Arquitectura Viva 176: Homegrafts. Six Iberian Case Studies. Avisa 2015 99148 There is no better place to show the organic continuity of architecture and cities than the domestic realm. Ruins may be perceived as residues or traces of past activities, but they can be appreciated also for the potentials of their material remains. By grafting the new onto the existing, we insert our lives into those of others and thereby gain deep roots and added memory. This issue highlights six case studies from Spain and Portugal, from the raw concrete boxes inserted between rugged old walls of E/C House by SAMI arquitectos, to the Lude HouseÕs smooth and striking crown by Grupo Aranea. Also in this issue, a special dossier on the pavilion typology and what it means today.
