Resumen
His article aims to reflect on Alfredo Baeschlin's personal and professional case, as a paradigm of an intricate period in the way of understanding life, social relationships and profession related to architecture as a way of rapprochement between the traditional architecture and avant-garde architectural trends. To this end, we propose an analysis of what happened in Ibiza, an island internationally known for its flirtations with modernity, and a utopian, idyllic, emotional, vital and experimental school for intellectuals in search of a temporary refuge that would reorder or refresh their erudite perceptions by means of a profound immersion in an ancestral, spacious and bright world, where only some travelers could find inspiration surrounded by the incomparable setting of the Mediterranean coast. The trip and the experience built up a myth touted by many architects when researching in order to understand the present and future of an avant-garde vernacular architecture. Perceptive approach, representative image and cultural value steered their reflections on the architectural field of that time.
