I'm from Spain, and even if my country kept quite "closed" (due to political events) to Modern Movement, we have some well-known architects of that period.

José Luis Sert was a modern master who emigrated to the States after collaborating with Le Corbusier. Most of his work is in Cambridge (Massachusetts) and in NY (he was Dean of the Harvard Graduate School of Design), but in Spain we have some good pieces, like the Miró Foundation in Barcelona.

In addition, you should take a look to José Antonio Coderch (who used to attend the Team 10 meetings) or Alejandro de la Sota, Corrales & Molezún, Saénz de Oiza... Perhaps it could be helpful to visit the Docomomo website
