Spanish architect Luis Vidal is renowned as one of the world's leading airport designers. But airports are just one typology of Vidal's broad range of large-scale architectural projects. Expect the Unexpected: Luis Vidal + Architects provides extraordinary insight into the work of Vidal and his studio and showcases fourteen projects that have become a world reference in architecture, design, and construction.
