El Croquis (Spanish; translates to English as "The Sketch") is one of the most prestigious architectural magazines in the world.[1][2]
The leading international architects choose it as their showcase. The volumes dedicated to established Pritzker Prize names like OMA Rem Koolhaas, Kazuyo Sejima, Herzog & de Meuron, Alvaro Siza or Rafael Moneo, are considered their respective oeuvre complète. For emerging architects, being published by El Croquis is a target in itself.
In 1992 it was awarded the Gold Medal for Exports by the Spanish Chamber of Commerce, a rare accomplishment for an architectural journal.
El Croquis Editorial is also noted for their exhibition gallery[3] in El Escorial (Madrid), housing a large collection of architectural models in constant rotation.
