“#MOBILIS, a shifting narrative” is a project designed by Universidad Finis Terrae School of Architecture faculty members Macarena Urzúa and Rodrigo Santa María (Siglo22arquitectos), consisting of a temporary intervention built from the accounts of 40 Chilean voices. The project was presented in April at the Young Architects Festival (YAF Constructo) held at the Ruinas de Huanchaca (Antofagasta) and at Puerto de Ideas.

Join us for the lecture: Alberto Cruz, Work and Archive. The talk will be presented by Sara Browne Cruz, historian, holder of a master's degree in history and cultural heritage management, and current executive director of the Alberto Cruz Covarrubias Foundation.

Through her firm, Base Studio, architect Bárbara Barreda develops a methodology for architectural design rooted in systemic thinking and unconventional geometric, material, and spatial formulations. By combining the potential of digital design with local, artisanal construction processes, she generates versatile and adaptable architectural systems.

Since 2016, the School of Architecture at Universidad Finis Terrae has hosted "Atraviesos Urbanos" (Urban Traversals), a series of thematic tours through various sectors of the capital. Led by an architecture professor who discusses the history and heritage value of each site to an audience of students, faculty, and the general public, these tours aim to highlight routes of cultural, urban, and historical interest throughout Santiago.

Starting May 1, the 'EUmies Awards 2022' exhibition—featuring models, texts, videos, sketches, and drawings of the 40 shortlisted projects and a summary of the 532 nominated works—opens at Espai Serrahima – Eskalndestino (a 4-minute walk from the Barcelona Pavilion).

The Pacífico, Huérfanos, and España galleries are among the more than fifteen that will make up the "Foundational Center Gallery System" tour, led by architect and Universidad Finis Terrae School of Architecture professor Víctor Villalobos. This event is open to the public and will take place on Monday, April 18, at 3:00 PM. The meeting point will be the rear entrance of the National Library (Moneda Street).

This activity is part of the Atravieso Urbano (Urban Traverse) series, organized by the same institution, which includes four walking tours through different sectors of the capital during the first semester of 2022. Each tour is led by an architect and architecture professor who discusses the history and heritage value of each location.

The Official College of Architects of Madrid (COAM), through its MATCOAM Building department, is organizing the first edition of the MATCOAM Construction Week, which will take place from November 2 to 5, 2022, at the COAM headquarters, located at 63 Hortaleza Street, Madrid. This new trade fair focuses on innovation and sustainability. High-quality exhibition spaces, a high-level congress, and a prime location in the heart of the city are the main draws of this new construction event. Industry companies will have the opportunity to present their most advanced systems and products directly to specifiers at the architects' own "home."

AceroLAB's mission is to drive innovation in steel through multisectoral development, connecting the public, private, and academic sectors. It approaches design at all scales, with a focus on quality of life, sustainability, and the productivity of buildings and public works in Chile.

Since the beginning of the 20th century, Karl Marx’s famous dictum that "All that is solid melts into air" seems to have its own architectural trajectory associated with emerging ideas of lightness, transparency, and the dematerialization of the building, from Georgii Krutikov’s utopias for a flying city (1927) or Vladimir Tatlin’s Letatlin (1932), to H.G. Wells’s city of the future, governed by the "dictatorship of the air" (1936). "Maximum air - Minimum walls!" was Sigfried Giedion’s demand for transforming the old static sense of structure into renewed combinassions aériennes, and a new system of equilibrium in suspension that, in Konrad Wachsmann’s understanding, would transform the building into a breathing skin.

The Master's Degree in Civil Engineering at the University of Oviedo, through its Transportation Engineering and Infrastructure department, is launching its fourth international ideas competition for students to solicit proposals for addressing issues related to transportation networks. The competition is supported by the Mieres City Council, and as such, it aims to intervene within its municipal boundaries.

The Málaga City Council, in its pursuit of a comprehensive transformation of the city's central coastline through the Málaga Litoral Plan, is seeking a cutting-edge, sustainable, and high-quality solution for over 70,000 m² of public space created by the construction of a tunnel to eliminate surface traffic.
