Architecture in Spain has emphasized the revitalization of buildings and historic centers, fostering more balanced urban development. This approach reflects an architecture aimed at a sustainable future, promoting the densification of urban cores and the recovery of existing structures through remodeling, reuse, expansion, or renovation. In this context, we are pleased to announce our collaboration with ICEX. Together, we seek to highlight and recognize the innovative work of Spanish architects, whose proposals inspire new and better practices in urban remodeling.

Universidad San Sebastián (Chile) has invited Belgian architect Kersten Geers, an international reference for his professional and academic practice, to lead the third edition of the EA USS Workshop in Santiago. Geers will also participate in a series of debates with participants, a conversation with the prominent architect and academic Enrique Walker, and a keynote lecture presenting his work and reflections on the discipline.

In this context, Chilean and Latin American universities are invited to join the experience by participating with teams composed of five undergraduate students and one or two faculty advisors.

Proyecta is an exhibition centered on the very essence of professional architectural practice: the act of designing, giving way to creation, conceiving forms, and thereby conveying the ideas, thoughts, and ideals inherent to the authors of the designs. Each project tells a story from its inception, reconciling formal ideals with the specific requirements of each work. Often, the best projects may remain on the drawing board, be archived, or be realized only after undergoing transformations as part of the materialization process, always susceptible to modification due to the impact of the circumstances of their historical moment. In this way, the exhibition creates a space for new creative explorations toward the design of a new city.
