L’obra vista a l’arquitectura catalana. Primeres notes

La construcció catalana dels darrers dos-cents anys no es pot entendre sense parlar del maó. El maó en va ser el material de construcció per excel·lència –amb el qual es bastiren parets, sostres, voltes d’escala, terrats i envans– i, a partir d’un cert moment, va passar a formar part del repertori expressiu de les façanes dels edificis. En aquestes notes ens proposem reflexionar sobre aquest segon punt: el de l‘aparença del maó. Es tracta d'un article introductori per a un llibre mai publicat del grup d’empreses Almirall (2002).
