Every year, hundreds of architects graduate across Spain, producing projects and theses that vividly reflect their personal interests, research, and motivations. Unfortunately, once their studies conclude, these projects often remain tucked away in a computer folder or on a library shelf.

However, we recognize that many of these theses address fundamental issues relevant to the practice of architecture today, not only in Spain but globally. For this reason, we are launching the first edition of our call for entries for Final Degree Projects (PFC) in Spain.

If you believe your final degree project deserves to be published on ArchDaily, it is time to submit your entry!

The Center for Architecture is now accepting for applications for the 2019 Stewardson Keefe LeBrun Travel Grant. The grant provides single or multiple awards of up to $25,000 for early to mid-level architects who wish to further their personal and professional development through travel. Originally conceived as a fund to provide architects with the experience of a European Grand Tour, recipients now explore unique travel research topics around the world. Recent topics include the study of architecture in Siberia, post-revolutionary architecture in Cuba, and a survey of the art of topiary in Europe and the United States, among many others. The Stewardson Keefe LeBrun Travel Grant focuses on self-directed education through travel. Itineraries should be focused on a selected topic of interest to the individual, rather than a part of a larger humanitarian or institutional endeavor.

Every semester, hundreds of architecture students graduate across the country. After five arduous years of dedication and extensive learning, they have developed an architectural perspective that they put into practice through their thesis projects. This culminating stage of their academic training marks their transition into professionals, reflecting the results of their research, inquiries, and personal motivations—a legacy of how this discipline, according to their vision, can serve the users of cities and the territory. We know that many of these theses exemplify how to address fundamental issues in contemporary architectural practice, not only in Colombia but worldwide.

For this reason, we are launching the fourth edition of our call for entries for architecture theses in Colombia. If you believe your undergraduate or graduate thesis is strong enough to be published on ArchDaily and deserves global recognition, it is time to submit your work via the form at the end of this article.

Although the field of architecture likes to think it is cutting-edge, adamantly liberal, and on the forefront of history, we still look towards the compulsive tendencies of the glorified visionary, their revolutionary thoughts, illuminating process, and iconic vision. This historiography is, in and of itself, an obsession - fetishizing personas, establishing camps, crafting a storyline that awards persuasion and trend over quality and sincerity. In the longstanding tradition of self-made, winner-take-all fanaticism, now more than ever do we see a craving for attention that is pulling (or rather dragging) the field even further from its core values and closer to soulless squander.
