Espacios interiores y mobiliario de Miguel Fisac

Abstract

Although Miguel Fisac’s designs for the furnishings in the Spanish Council for Scientific Research are well known and widely photographed, they had not, to date, been studied as a whole. This chronological review of the styles used to create different spatial effects describes both the author’s motivations as explained by the architect himself and the present condition of the furnishings. Considerations in support of their inclusion in the Council’s Artistic Estate are discussed, advocating —in the case of the “Scientific Library”— the award of Asset of Cultural Interest status.
