seventy days on the road (Signed copy)

seventy days on the road is a project born from the need to explore the world, not only as a human being but as a photographer, as an architect, as a driver, and as a classic car enthusiast. It is inspired not only by the traditional grand tour or the road trips in search of inspiration of Edward and Josephine Hopper in 1941 and 1952–1953, but also by those of Spanish architect Ramón Vázquez Molezún, who rode his Lambretta across much of Europe in the 1950s aiming to experience firsthand the architectural masterpieces he had studied in school.
seventy days on the road is the first one in a series of road trips exploring the world from an architectural photographer’s point of view, where the final spot itself -the buildings, the places, the architecture- is not the goal, but the trip itself, the way you get to them, is in focus as an inspirational element in itself, and the views, framed by the car from the cockpit, are as important as the destination.
This photo essay is the result of a seventy-day solo road trip covering 11,000 km through 11 countries in Europe, driving a 1990 Fiat Panda. It includes more than 400 photographs, selected from over 4,000, mostly of architectural masterpieces from the last century. But it is also a visual travel diary, capturing the roads and landscapes encountered along the way.
One architect, two cameras, one Fiat Panda, and 11,000 km through Europe.
