The exhibition “OBRA OBERTA, dedicated to the work of architect Josep Lluís Mateo, opens at the Col·legi d’Arquitectes de Catalunya. Curated by María Figueras and Cristina Marcos, the show invites us to rethink the architectural act as a practice in constant transition, where the physical and the conceptual intertwine through processes, representations, and contexts.

Under the title Sent l'Arquitectura – Feel the Architecture – the sixteenth edition of 48h Open House Barcelona invites everyone to reflect on their sensory experience of space. For one weekend only, the most important architecture festival in the Barcelona metropolitan area once again opens doors that are usually closed, and more importantly, opens conversations about how we inhabit, perceive and transform the spaces around us.

Open House Valencia returns for its seventh edition from 24 to 26 October, opening the doors of more than seventy buildings across the city and beyond. The programme will feature around twenty urban tours and a wide range of activities, including talks, technical visits, workshops, exhibitions, and cultural activities for all audiences. For the first time, the festival will expand beyond the city itself, with several guest municipalities joining the initiative and contributing their own itineraries, helping to broaden the event's regional reach.
