Abstract

The article reviews the work of Emilio Pérez Piñero, a designer of unfolding structures and geodesic domes, who leaped directly from isolated, impoverished Spain to the international forefront of technological development and tragically a few years after. The paper describes the main aspects of Piñero's work and explains how his foldable, movable structures embody some key issues of the architecture of the nineteen-sixties, anticipating a number of proposals joy Rayner Banham, Ron Herron or Peter Cook.
