Catalogación de la obra residencial de Aníbal González

Abstract

The present work is focused on the Sevillian architect Aníbal González Álvarez-Ossorio, one of the greatest exponents of the Regionalist movement in Andalusia (Spain), who also designed buildings in other contemporary styles of early twentieth century, as the Modernism. He created a huge amount of residential, religious, industrial buildings and public spaces that are quiet unknown in academic and general spheres, despite the significance of their design and the traditional techniques employed. Thereby, this research is aimed at deepening the knowledge and revitalizing its most unknown and numerous works: residential buildings. The database designed comprises a set of records that collects all formal, stylistic, constructive, historical and documentary information of the one hundred and eighty residential buildings under study throughout their life cycle, obtained from different sources that are not accessible to general public. Research results will provide experts with scientific knowledge for decisionmaking processes focused on heritage study and intervention. Furthermore, it will contribute to arouse interest in this significant heritage at tourist level, innovating and diversifying the Andalusian cultural tourist offer.
