A graphic and descriptive journey of the new building of the General Archive of Oaxaca, which at first would be called the Historical Archive of Oaxaca, but when joining with other archives its name changed. The Spanish firm Mendaro Arquitectos was commissioned in 2016 to project a place that would solve the absolute and urgent need to preserve all the documentary richness of Oaxaca's heritage, which was scattered in many places and on the brink of destruction. The location selected to build the City of Archives was Las Canteras Park, in the limits of the municipality, making it establish relations with the green areas and the surrounding transport. With a wide photographic collection, the book also shows us the germinal sketches, the facades, the various detail solutions and some daily errands of the work that allow the transmission of feelings, emotions and beauty, terms that Ignacio Mendaro dares to use when talking about his architecture.
