The Architectural Project considers the practice of architectural design as it has developed from the Renaissance into the Modern era. Here, CoronaMartÃnez emphasizes the distinction between an architectural project, created in the architect's mind and materialized as a set of drawings on paper, and the realized threedimensional building. Architectural schooling, he suggests, has had a decisive role in the transmission of these practices. He concludes that the methods formalized in Beaux Arts teaching are not only still with us but are in good part responsible for the stylistic instability that haunts Modern architecture.
