The “double slab”: features and meaning of a residential building type in Barcelona Modern Movement

The paper is a part of a wider research developed by the authors since 2014 about the relationship between Modern Architecture in Barcelona and Milan between ’40s and ’60s . Here a particular building type the „double slab” has been investigated. It is based on a modular design system for housing quite popular among architects in Barcelona and throughout Spain. The “double slab” is very well typologically defined and for this reason got a strong identity but at the same time it is quite flexible and easy to be adapted to different styles which span from pre-modernism to the contemporary styles passing through the Regionalism.
