The Bilbao contest, however, is particularly interesting because it takes place in the middle of the city, in an urban environment. The jury will select 20 projects, which will be carried out and remain exhibited for a period of two months. This way, people will see the gardens as they walk around the city streets and squares, a fascinating, formative and fun route of urban discovery. The winner will be given the opportunity to design a new garden in the city; this way, the efforts of the contestants will not be forgotten. Also, five prestigious creators will design an off-contest garden and form part of the jury. 4 Gardens from invited creatives In this edition, four creators design their own gardens: Oscar Tusquets and Cerabella Javier Mariscal Ailanto Ouka Leele The fifth garden is executed by the Contest Consultant, prestigious landscape gardener Artur Bossy, with the ideas from five emblematic cooks from the city which express the essence from Bilbao cooking.

Ramiro de Maeztu S/N, 28040 Madrid, Spain; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +34-68-095-7181 Received: 30 October 2018; Accepted: 3 December 2018; Published: 5 December 2018 Abstract: Palm trees are very fast-growing species. Their management produces annually a large amount of biomass that traditionally has been either disposed of at dumping sites or has been burnt onsite. This paper presents an experimental study to obtain particleboard using this biomass in a low energy process (short pressing time and low pressing temperature), using particles of different sizes from the rachis (midrib) of the three palm species most representative of urban gardening in Spain: canary palm (Phoenix canariensis hort. ex Chabaud), date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) and washingtonia palm (Washingtonia robusta H. Wendl). Their physical and mechanical properties were tested, and the feasibility of their use as a construction material was evaluated. The results showed that the manufactured particleboard had similar performance to conventional wood particleboard and good thermal insulation properties.

Overview This tour, led by horticulturalist Stephen Ryan and Anneli Bojstad, author of Great Gardens of Spain, visits splendid gardens and great monuments from the Mediterranean coast to Old Castile. Stephen and Anneli will be assisted by Craig Lidgerwood. Explore Spain’s distinctive gardening tradition shaped both by the country’s great climatic diversity and its powerful Islamic heritage. Meet famed Spanish landscape designer Eduardo Mencos, author of Hidden Gardens of Spain. Eduardo and Anneli will show us their landscaped working farm 'La Lancha', in Extremadura. Talented design duo Miguel Urquijo and Renate Kastner will show us their restoration of a private palace garden in Toledo with magnificent views of the Cathedral; and an exciting new garden near the walled city of Ávila. In Madrid, landscape designer Fernando Martos introduces his work, which combines the wild beauty of Spain’s arid landscape with planting ideas borrowed from the English garden tradition. Visit a carefully curated selection of Spain’s finest hidden gardens hosted by their owners, including El Romeral de San Marcos in Segovia, designed by pioneering landscape designer Leandro Silva; an outstanding Mediterranean classical garden in the province of Málaga; a romantic oasis garden in the outskirts of Madrid and 16th-century private palace in Ronda.

  • Spanish Gardens
    R. KH \(c SPANISH GARDEN S THEIR HISTORY TYPES AND FEATURES By C. M. VILLI ERS-STUART Author of “Gardens of the Great Mughals” T f LONDON B. T. BATSFORD, LTD. 94 HIGH HOLBORN First Published 1929 Made and Printed in Great Britain for the Publishers, Press, W.9 B. T. Batsford, Ltd., London, by The Westminster To P. V.-S. b PREFACE T is just fifteen years since I first began to study Spanish gardens. My interest was aroused through a study of I Indian water-gardens, for I found that the two subjects supplement each other. To understand the structural pur- pose and charm of the irrigated garden, it is necessary to see both the plan and the planting intact. This is by no means a simple undertaking. In modern times these two features have become widely separated. The whole width of what was once the Moslem Empire lies between the complete plan in the East and the planting in the West, between the great architectural lay-out of gardens such as the Kashmir Shahlimar Bagh and the Taj Mahal at Agra and the tra- ditional planting of the Generalife at Granada and the Alcazar at Seville. Each country has managed to retain one aspect of the Moslem Paradise Garden. In India the archi- tectural shell survives, but the wars and unsettled conditions of the eighteenth century, and contact with the English romantic taste in the nineteenth, have largely destroyed traditional gardening. In Spain the great gardens of the Arab Kalifs have disappeared, but their system of planting remains almost untouched.

    International Journal of Geo-Information Article The Mosque-Cathedral of Cordoba: Graphic Analysis of Interior Perspectives by Girault de Prangey around 1839 Antonio Gámiz-Gordo 1,* , Juan Cantizani-Oliva 2 and Juan Francisco Reinoso-Gordo 3 1 Architectural Graphic Expression Department, University of Seville, 41012 Seville, Spain 2 Electrical and Automatic Engineering Department, University of Cordoba, 14071 Cordoba, Spain; [email protected] 3 Architectural and Engineering Graphic Expression Department, University of Granada, 18071 Granada, Spain; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: The work of Philibert Girault de Prangey, who was a draughtsman, pioneering photogra- pher and an Islamic architecture scholar, has been the subject of recent exhibitions in his hometown (Langres, 2019), at the Metropolitan Museum (New York, 2019) and at the Musée d’Orsay (Paris, 2020). After visiting Andalusia between 1832 and 1833, Prangey completed the publication “Monuments arabes et moresques de Cordoue, Seville et Grenada” in 1839, based on his own drawings and mea- surements. For the first time, this research analyses his interior perspectives of the Mosque-Cathedral of Cordoba (Spain). The novel methodology is based on its comparison with a digital model derived from the point cloud captured by a 3D laser scanner. After locating the different viewpoints, the geometric precision and the elaboration process are analysed, taking into account historic images by various authors, other details published by Prangey and the architectural transformations of the Citation: Gámiz-Gordo, A.; Cantizani-Oliva, J.; Reinoso-Gordo, building. In this way, the veracity and documentary interest of some beautiful perspectives of a J.F. The Mosque-Cathedral of monument inscribed on the World Heritage List by UNESCO is valued.
