Organized by the Colegio de Arquitectos Provincia de Buenos Aires (CAPBA D5), this national competition seeks proposals for the "Plaza de las Carretas" in Campana, Buenos Aires.
The initiative aims for the Plaza de las Carretas to function as a unifying space that provides connections to the surrounding axes, while also establishing itself as a true "public activity center" for continuous use in its own right.
The objective of this competition is to design a facade of variable thickness for a site in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires. The project must address the facade's relationship with both interior and exterior spaces, its materiality, the connection between architecture and the urban environment, its habitability in relation to its uses, orientation, and environmental integration, as well as any other elements proposed by the participants.

Every city requires collective action to be reinvented and adapted to the demands of the 21st century, especially in a post-pandemic world. This is the central argument of the book Reinvenção da Cidade - Interação, Equidade, Planeta (Reinventing the City - Interaction, Equity, Planet) by architect and urban planner Sérgio Magalhães. The work addresses key challenges facing Brazilian urban spaces in the pursuit of cities that are less predatory and unequal, and more democratic, inclusive, and sustainable. Throughout the text, the author sheds light on the case of Rio de Janeiro as an iconic metropolitan city that concentrates the attributes, contrasts, shortcomings, and potential that shape the national identity. The book will be launched on Friday, March 18, at 7:00 PM, at the Livraria da Travessa in Shopping Leblon.
