In an era of globalization, where communication has been dominated by the technological revolution, there is a need to rethink cities and how humanity relates in a global world, as well as to rethink the economic, social, and cultural patterns of contemporary societies.
We value young creatives and thinkers, as they are invaluable. We want to give these young people a voice.

The Madrid City Council, in collaboration with the Official College of Architects of Madrid (COAM), has launched a competition for the adaptation and rehabilitation of the historic Beti Jai fronton (always party in Basque) in the Spanish capital.

This former sports facility for Basque pelota, which seats 4,000 spectators, was designed by Joaquín de Rucoba and inaugurated in 1894. It served various purposes after 1918, when it ceased to function exclusively as a sports venue, until it was completely abandoned in 1989. In 2015, the Madrid City Council acquired the site, following concerns over its uncertain future raised by local organizations such as Madrid, Ciudadanía y Patrimonio.

Organized by the Sociedad Central de Arquitectos, this international competition seeks the development of a preliminary design for the Faro de la Cultura (Lighthouse of Culture), a cultural center to be located in the Rodrigo Bueno neighborhood of Costanera Sur, between the ecological reserve and the former Boca Sports City.

The project’s primary objective is to stimulate integration and equitable access to facilities for all local residents, fostering community engagement.

Ideasforward is an experimental platform that seeks progressive ideas reflecting emerging themes. Ecological design, sustainable architecture, new materials, concepts, and technologies are pressing issues for the societies of the future, and the participation of the entire community is essential. In an era of globalization, where communication has been dominated by the technological revolution, there is a need to rethink cities and how humanity relates within a global world, as well as to reconsider the economic, social, and cultural patterns of contemporary societies.

The Municipality of Quito, through the Metropolitan Institute of Urban Planning (IMPU) and the Pichincha Architects Association (CAE-P), invites architects, urban planners, and other professionals to participate in a competition aimed at the urban renewal of the railway corridor in southern Quito.

This competition seeks to reimagine the corridor, which currently only serves the tourist train, and whose spatial, environmental, economic, and social potential remains untapped. Consequently, the competition encourages the development of proposals that integrate and acknowledge this historic infrastructure within the city, highlighting its potential as an inclusive and connective public space. The goal is to create gathering spaces and incorporate facilities, retail, and services that enhance the current use and character of each sector. Participants may even rethink the role of this corridor for various urban functions, regardless of whether the train remains in operation. The corridor spans approximately 13 kilometers and traverses areas with a significant diversity of dynamics, land uses, and levels of urban consolidation.

The journal Designia invites the national and international academic community to submit research-based articles in the fields of Architecture, Urbanism, Design (graphic, industrial, and fashion), Heritage, Museology, and Visual Arts for publication in Volume 6, Issue 1.
