The Albanian Files
Albania is a young democracy, home to nearly three million people. The country sits at the heart of the Mediterranean; its geographic location has long shaped the country’s cultural exchanges and built environment. Three decades after the collapse of the communist regime, Albania remains in transition – culturally, socially and architecturally. This ongoing renewal has placed architecture at the center of national discourse and created a specific opportunity for architects. The Albanian Files focuses on that transformation.
This book brings together sixty international offices currently working in Albania, some of which have been active in the country since the early 2000s. Each office submitted a contribution with reflections on their experiences in Albania and on architecture built and proposed.
