Xavier Vilalta (born May 8, 1980) is a Catalan Spanish architect and professor. He studied Architecture between Barcelona and the United States in the Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago. He combines practice with teaching and lecturing in cultural institutions and venues. He has taught as a professor at Barcelona Tech ETSAB and the University of Lleida. In 2004 he founded the design firm Vilalta Arquitectura in Barcelona, Spain. With VA, he has developed a very prolific early work in Spain followed by international projects in emerging countries in Africa and the Middle East. His projects have been recognized by international awards such as the Young Architect of the year at the Leaf Awards 2008, and two consecutive awards, 2009 and 2010, the SAIE Selection of the energy exhibition of Bologna in Italy for the sustainability of his projects. In 2011, he became a Fellow of TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design). ==Design vision== Xavier Vilalta's work focuses on nature and people as well as how to reconnect the two thinking about our contemporary urban life as part of the environment where Architecture grows from the local natural conditions and traditions. He is interested in vernacular architecture related to sustainability. He defines sustainability as the relationship between Architecture and the program it contains and its social values, the way it is designed and built and how it will perform in the future. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Xavier Vilalta」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
