Open Doors – Escola da Cidade – 3rd Meeting: 'Principles of Architectural Structure' Lecture
A workshop on building structural models, led by professors Roberto Alfredo Pompéia and Maria Rosa Almeida, will take place on October 23. Registration is open. Free of charge.
Drawing from the theme "In Project" of the 11th Architecture Biennial, the firm SIAA Arquitetos Associados reflects on the potential for alternative relationships between architectural design, the built environment, and its public occupation over time, whether anticipated or not. To this end, they use the Centro Cultural São Paulo building—designed by architects Eurico Prado Lopes and Luiz Telles—as the foundation for their reflection, and not by coincidence.
Dream Up + Design is premised on recognizing the creativity of every woman architect in Venezuela and Latin America. It serves as a space to share information and inspiration, while connecting and supporting women architects, regardless of whether they have chosen to become mothers.
Symposium establishes itself as a forum for undergraduate research in Architecture and Urbanism
In its tenth edition, the Escola da Cidade symposium has established itself as a forum for discussing undergraduate research in architecture and urbanism from across Brazil.
Aiming to discuss the trajectory of Brazilian architecture, based on current discussions and critiques published in specialized media, the IAB will host a series of debates centered on the practice of architectural competitions. The complexity of addressing this issue has led the IAB to foster a broader reflection on these topics and to invite architects to discuss both the conditions of competitions within the current professional context and their role in a wider urban and social dimension, viewing the city and architecture as social rights for the entire population.
As part of the HAY Festival Segovia 2018, the film Mies on Scene (2018), directed by Pep Martín and Xavi Campreció, will be screened in Segovia, Spain, this Saturday, September 22. And ArchDaily en Español is giving away tickets!
Mies on Scene explores the history of a building that changed the course of architecture in Europe and across the globe. It tells the story of the Barcelona Pavilion, the masterpiece through which Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Lilly Reich staged their revolutionary ideas in 1929. Its construction and subsequent reconstruction immerse us in a reflection on the perception of art, space, and the concept of a masterpiece.

The Wilton Paes de Almeida building, a landmark of modern architecture in São Paulo and recognized as a municipal cultural heritage site in 1992, collapsed following a massive fire on May 1st of this year.

THE IDIOMATIC IN ARCHITECTURE: A DIALOGUE BETWEEN THE WHAT AND THE HOW By MO+G Taller de Arquitectura: Andrés Mayorga, Leopoldo Orendain, and Diego González.
An architect dedicated to the visibility of women in our discipline, an architect working on the integration of technologies, an architect involved in research and dissemination, and an architect who integrates graphic and industrial design into their practice will be the guests for the second session of the project X FORMAS DE HACER ARQUITECTURA, taking place in the heart of Santiago next Thursday, September 27, at 7:00 PM at AriztiaLAB.
Known simply as XFORMAS, this is the latest session of the project led by Fabiola González and Yair Estay (TALLER25) alongside Nicolás Valencia (ArchDaily). "Today, architecture is an idealized profession, completely disconnected from the constant changes in society and the labor market," the organizers state. "Consequently, XFORMAS emerges as a space for discussion and for highlighting new ways of practicing architecture," they add.
