The Ibero-American Association of Urban History invites you to attend the 4th Ibero-American Congress of Urban History, to be held from November 24 to 28, 2025, in São Paulo. The event will take place at the University of São Paulo’s Faculty of Architecture and Urbanism and the MariAntonia Center, as well as at the Escola da Cidade.
Inspired by the timelessness of the song "Coração de Estudante" by Milton Nascimento and Wagner Tiso, architect Henrique Hoffman and Hunter Douglas, a global leader in window coverings and architectural products, have partnered to reimagine the facade of the historic Instituto de Educação de Minas Gerais (IEMG) building. The intervention, titled "Há que se cuidar do broto" (One must care for the sprout), is part of the Modernos Eternos architecture and design exhibition, which will be held at the iconic pink building in Belo Horizonte from June 18 to July 14. The event features over 35 spaces designed by renowned architects and interior designers, showcasing the latest industry trends across 6,000 m² of the school building; nine of these spaces are decorated with products from the Hunter Douglas blinds and shades division.
The Dual Degree Doctoral Academic Agreement between the School of Architecture and Urbanism at the University of São Paulo (FAU USP) and the Università IUAV di Venezia was signed in 2017, expanding a general cooperation agreement established between the two universities in 2008.
To consolidate this academic partnership, the Design and History Seminar will be held, featuring an Interacademic Ceremony with directors and representatives from FAU USP, IUAV, and the Italian Cultural Institute in São Paulo. Following the ceremony, three visiting Italian professors, all graduates of the IUAV Doctoral School in Architectural History, will present lectures.
Architect and presenter Bel Lobo will participate in a talk during the opening of the Portobello Shop Maringá on June 6, starting at 7:00 PM.
