The course in Architecture for Humanities was born to train designers who know how to compose meaningful architectures even in the most complex contexts to bring quality and beauty where you are not used to seeing it. Today, pandemic, economic crisis, migration and climate change have turned every area -from the periphery of our metropolis to the most remote tropical village- into what can be defined as “emergency context”.
A decade before Le Corbusier and Louis Kahn appeared on the Indian architectural scene, Golconde—the first example of pre-independence modern architecture—was being developed in an enclave of French India, Pondicherry, in 1938. Thirty years later, The Mother envisioned a new city, Auroville, named after Sri Aurobindo and dedicated to achieving human unity and understanding, serving as an example to the international community.

Now more than ever, academia must be linked to society by creating School+Community projects. At Fábrica de Ciudad, given the unique moment we are currently living through, we are redoubling our commitment to education and society. For this reason, we have created Factory Fridays, conceived as an online school project featuring guest professors from both Mexico and abroad. From May 15 to July 30, every Friday we will host a session led by prominent Latin American architects who will share their practice and ideas through lectures and dialogues.
How do we address the issue of isolation through the lenses of habitability, time, or space? These are some of the questions posed by the "Isolated Dialogues" series, organized by the Finis Terrae University School of Architecture, which will bring together various local and international artists, architects, designers, musicians, scientists, and journalists in each session to discuss these topics.
Herewearch is an independent student platform that is shaped by theme of design students sharing. We believe that design is powered by sharing by its nature. We want to take this sharing level one step further and we are pleased to announce that we decided to create an annual publication. This publication will find itself a separate place on our platform and each of our journals will be turned into an online magazine and shared on different platforms. Also, we would like to indicate that we will make our first journal ( co -times) into a digital exhibition.
Projects should be delivered using ARCHICAD, the industry first BIM software for architects developed by GRAPHISOFT, and its supported 3rd party applications.

As a reaction to the unprecedented moment that we are all experiencing, Zuecca Projects has decided to launch its first-ever Open Call, on the theme of Sustainable Architecture and Design.
When we came together in February to celebrate the launch of Gathering, we considered transformational retail experiences rooted in brand values; the desire to physically experience a brand – both by drawing energy and inspiration from being in a store to the tactility of the product; and the role retail environments play as a third space in our larger communities. Repeatedly we heard the refrain; “bad retail is dying.” We discussed how retail brands have adapted to embody their values, designed for experiences, and built authentic connections with their consumer base. In today’s context we’re considering the future of that experience in the shadow of the COVID-19 pandemic.
