Our research focuses on the architectural culture of Southern Europe during the first three decades of the 20h century. More precisely, we attempt to identify the common links between Portugal, Spain, Italy and Greece. We also propose to understand the to and fro between local culture and the international mainstream, as well as the role played by vernacular architecture in this process. Finally, we intend to contribute to a better knowledge of some specificities that can be associated with the idea of Southern Architecture.
