The Spanish Association of Furniture Manufacturers and Exporters (ANIEME) extends the invitation to the event The Design Room Lisboa 2024, a one-day exhibition of the main Spanish brands in the furniture and textile sector, aimed at the professional contract channel. The event will take place on Wednesday, June 26th, at Pavilhão Carlos Lopes, in Lisbon.
Organised as part of this year’s London Festival of Architecture, this event will see Czech visual artist and musician Vladimir 518 discussing his seminal publication ‚Architecture 58 – 89‘.
While post-war architecture from the former Eastern Bloc is highly regarded by foreign architects and students, its perception in the Czech Republic is marked by considerable ambiguity. Often, it is negatively labelled as communist architecture of low value, deemed highly ideological, and seen as in need of replacement. Utilising two significant milestones—Expo 58 in Brussels and the 1989 Velvet Revolution— Vladimir 518 will reassess the Czech and Slovak architectural landscape during this period with the aim to foster a deeper understanding and appreciation in order to reset the perspective of the general public and preserve those landmarks for future generations.
