In the lecture "Seeking Pertinent Systems," Edna Garza and Darío Camisay, directors of the Monterrey, Mexico-based architecture and design firm Garza Camisay Arquitectos, will share the unique story behind each of their projects. This narrative will focus on uncovering the architectural system selected for each work. The "search for pertinence" is a constant in every project—a filter that allows these systems to be understood as a consequence rather than an objective.

"Martes de Ruido" is a brief, informal conversation series lasting approximately 30 minutes. Featuring up to four sessions per day, the series invites national and international guests to address a specific topic, fostering discussion and reflection.

Session 274. "Landscape Through" Gabriel Díaz Montemayor
This presentation begins with an interpretation of the built environment in Mexico and Latin America as a process and practice that emerges from the city and the landscape, which are culturally understood as a dichotomy. The "Landscape Through" approach invites us to consider the built environment as a network of embedded scales and systems, creating a diversity of thresholds, interstices, and ecotones that impact, support, and evolve alongside one another, suggesting their dissolution. There is no such thing as an intact, pristine natural environment, nor is there a complete, determined urban environment. This argument is presented as a reflection aimed at fostering a more socially and environmentally just habitat, one that is implementable for the transformation and regeneration of our cities. The presentation is structured around a theoretical framework and a variety of projects developed through applied academic research, design workshops as service initiatives, and professional projects.

Fábrica de Ciudad invites you to participate in the Update Seminar: SAC-FAB.5 | Estudio MMX. Architecture and Territory.

The architectural works presented in this exhibition bring together 30 projects executed over 30 years by Mexican architect Francisco González Pulido. The buildings span a variety of scales, geographic locations, site conditions, ecologies, levels of complexity, and client types. As such, they represent the diversity of Francisco’s practice and his commitment to excellence in design, science, and technology.

On June 17 at 5:00 p.m., join us for a discussion on Urban Design, Culture, and Habitat—core topics of the Undergraduate Program in Urban Design and Habitat Management. The event will feature distinguished guests: Alejandro Echeverri, Natalia Castaño, Jean Pierre Crousse, and Teddy Cruz.

The School of Architecture, Art and Design at Tecnológico de Monterrey will host the presentation of the Cities Observatory, a platform providing current and useful information for the analysis, measurement, and evaluation of Mexican cities. This initiative aims to influence planning and decision-making processes to improve urban quality of life.

How do we reinterpret cultural relationships with water and the city? What is the importance of biodiversity and birdlife during moments of habitat change? How do we connect history—past, present, and future visions—to rethink our interactions with the Magdalena River basin? How are culture, art, and identity key to understanding our amphibious relationship? These are some of the questions that will be addressed at the first international symposium, Magdalena - Ribera en tránsito (Magdalena - Riverbank in Transit), which will take place from June 21 to 24 and on July 8 at the Universidad del Norte in Barranquilla, Colombia.

"La Polita, Arquitectura Conversada" is a forum for promoting architectural culture, developed and shared by the architecture cooperative COONVITE.

This book analyzes the origin, development, and dismantling of the Lima Planning Institute (IPL) at the National University of Engineering (UNI), which served as the headquarters for Project 205 of the Inter-American Program for Urban and Regional Planning (PIAPUR).

The book highlights the Institute's significance within both the national and Latin American contexts regarding professional training in urban and regional planning, while considering the influence of the various schools of thought and the political and social movements of the era. It was the first postgraduate program of its kind in the country and the first in its specialty in Latin America.
