City Hall Extension, Murcia
Photographer: Michael Moran
Architect/Designer: Rafael Moneo
Client: Rafael Moneo
Location: Murcia, Spain

Another city hall project can be found in the City Hall Extension in Murcia, Spain. Completed in 1998, Moneo approached the project as "revering the existing architecture while conceiving the new one free from contextual and stylistic references." The building fronts Cardinal Belluga Piazza and looks across to the facade of the Cathedral of Murcia. Moneo started the project as Deconstructivism was sweeping academia, having displaced Postmodernism as the prevailing style and approach to context. His design is between these two extremes, most prominently "a structure of superimposed pilasters that immediately brings to mind the idea of the facade as a retable [a frame with objects behind an altar]," therefore linking it to the Cathedral.
