Should beauty be discarded in the face of a global imperative for architecture to engage with sustainability and heightened social consultation? Izaskun Chinchilla and Emilio Luque argue that this is not the case, and that beauty can be rearticulated and used as a way to achieve these goals. They illustrate their ideas through the recent work of Madrid‐based Izaskun Chinchilla Architects.
