The seventeenth edition of Materia Arquitectura magazine, an editorial project by the Faculty of Architecture and Art at Universidad San Sebastián directed by Mario Marchant, revolves around two fundamental instances in architectural production: the studio and the office.

Can we discuss architecture through the lens of memory and reconciliation? "How do we create spaces of memory? What is living memory?"
This event stems from the conviction that it is possible to debate memory and reconciliation through architecture and urbanism. As we mark the 15th anniversary of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission's final report, it is essential to create a space where these topics can be presented and discussed.
The Municipality of Quito, through the Metropolitan Institute of Urban Planning (IMPU) and the Pichincha Architects Association (CAE-P), invites architects, urban planners, and other professionals to participate in a competition aimed at the urban renewal of the railway corridor in southern Quito.
This competition seeks to reimagine the corridor, which currently only serves the tourist train, and whose spatial, environmental, economic, and social potential remains untapped. Consequently, the competition encourages the development of proposals that integrate and acknowledge this historic infrastructure within the city, highlighting its potential as an inclusive and connective public space. The goal is to create gathering spaces and incorporate facilities, retail, and services that enhance the current use and character of each sector. Participants may even rethink the role of this corridor for various urban functions, regardless of whether the train remains in operation. The corridor spans approximately 13 kilometers and traverses areas with a significant diversity of dynamics, land uses, and levels of urban consolidation.
The 2018 World Cup ended just a few weeks ago. It concluded an intense month that not only impacted the world of sports but also had direct repercussions on the host country's economy, tourism, and urban planning. Russia was the chosen host country. A total of 12 stadiums across 11 Russian cities were built or renovated for the tournament. But have you ever considered what happens when Olympic stadiums, World Cup venues, or other costly sports infrastructure close after the events for which they were designed? Many host local sports clubs. Others, however, become what we call "white elephants," used as parking lots, car racing tracks, or even—as in the case of Montreal's spectacular Olympic Stadium—a flu vaccination center. In "Residential Stadium: Adaptive Reuse," Archstorming aims to analyze how architecture can provide solutions for stadium design, ensuring they can be repurposed once the sporting event has concluded.
