  2. A r c h I t e c t A r t I s t E n g I n e e r Santiago calatrava was born on july 28, 1951 in a town of benimamet, near Valencia, Spain. He attended primary and secondary school in Valencia. From the age of 8, he also attended the arts and crafts school, where he started his formal instruction in drawing and painting. At the age 13 he was an exchange student in France and traveled to study in Switzerland. He returned to Valencia and finished high and later he was enrolled en escuela tecnica superior de architectura. He earned a degree in architecture and took a post-graduate course in urbanism. Being attracted by mathematics, calatrava decided to pursue post-graduate studies in civil engineering, so he was enrolled in the federal institute of technology in Zurich, Switzerland in 1975. he received his doctor rate in 1979, during that period he met and married his wife, who was a law student in Zurich.

  3. Winery complex for the Bodega & Bebidas GroupLaguardia, Alava, Spain, 1998-2000The building is conceived as an element that isintegrated into the powerful, surrounding landscapewhile being somehwat autonomous at the same time,in the manner of a site-specific sculpture. Calatravaadopted the strategy of giving a volumetric treatmentto the roof and walls, physical limits of the landscapeoutside and the winery within, so that continuitybetween the two spaces is achieved not throughtransparency but through the"static movement" of the enclosures The following structures are calatrava’s most recent and famous structures. San Sebastian - Bodegas Ysios

  7. Currently there are some of calatrava’s structures yet to be seen like the 80th south street tower. The building will be Mr. Calatrava's first residential project in the United States. The principal units of the building are 45-foot glazed cubes, each of which contains four floors of residential space.  Twelve cubes are cantilevered, in steplike fashion, up the building's vertical core, which in plan is a slender concrete rectangle. The core contains the building plant, main elevators, service elevator, and emergency stair, so that usable space within the cubes is maximized.  The structure as a whole rises from a 60,000 square foot base, approximately 80 to 90 feet high, which Mr. Sciame envisions as the home of a major cultural institution. The 80 South Street Tower as a whole is 835 feet high and will contain 175,000 square feet of space
