Located in southern Spain<\/a>, Seville<\/a> unfolds as a layered city shaped by centuries of cultural intersections. As the former capital of Al-Andalus and a central port during the Spanish Empire’s expansion, its built environment reflects a deep historical complexity. From Roman foundations to Islamic geometries<\/a>, from Renaissance<\/a> palaces to contemporary interventions<\/a>, Seville presents a unique spatial narrative in which architecture directly reflects its political, religious, and social transformations.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

The city’s architectural heritage is inseparable from its climate and geography. Narrow shaded streets, inner courtyards, and water as spatial elements reveal a deep knowledge of environmental adaptation that still informs how public and private spaces are articulated today. While monumental landmarks such as the Alc\u00e1zar<\/a>, the Giralda<\/a>, or the Cathedral<\/a> preserve and reinterpret historic legacies, modern projects have begun introducing new materials, programs, and spatial typologies, challenging conventional forms and proposing alternative ways to inhabit the city.<\/p>\n
