Sumario:	The article focuses on Antón García-Abril an architect. Garc& iacute;a-Abril worked in the studio of Alberto Campo Baeza as a student, while family friend Rafael Monco gave him personal critiques of his student projects. The architect has carried experiments with heavy masonry a wild step further for Spain's General Society of Authors and Editors (SGAE). The tumbledown construction also recalls Stonehenge— a reference to Galicia's ancient Celtic culture— and a disordered bookcase, symbolizing the SGAE's role in collecting royalties for musicians and writers.
