Fondazione La Biennale di Venezia’s Post

10 days to submit your abstracts! We are particularly interested in projects and research initiatives that combine traditional crafts and materials with contemporary tools and technologies in the design and construction of building structures. We strongly encourage participants from diverse and global cultural and academic contexts as well as approaches that address questions of ecology and material awareness. Please send your abstracts! #conference #ICSA2025 #IASA #structures #architecture #craftsmanship #materials #buildingtechnology #digitaltools #ecology

My participation in the 46th edition of the Salon of Architecture Belgrade in March 2024 with my two most recent publications.

| Roca Gallery | TOPIC OF THE MONTH - Design for Interspecies Cohabitation The global ecosystem is increasingly out of balance as a result of the accumulation of human activities over many years. In our exploration of ways to recover this balance, numerous questions arise about how to design for a world that is shifting from an anthropocentric approach to one of interdependence between humans and nature. More and more we are realising that we have a great deal to learn from the other species who share our planet as we imagine a future based on cohabitation and cooperation. For our latest Topic of the Month we have some fascinating insights from internationally renowned architects, academics and designers including Adam Marcus Variable Projects, Enrique Espinosa Eeestudio, Joyce Hwang + Nerea Feliz, Boonserm Premthada, Daniel Ibáñez + Vicente Guallart + Michael Salka Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia, Gao Changjun, Elizabeth Camuti Tulane University School of Architecture, Xiaoxiao Zhao.

Inspired by the latest discoveries at Pompeii: our new catalogue Beyond Ruins: 400 Years of Art and Architecture!

Did you know that housing in Mexico is a fundamental right, enshrined in the constitution? It is therefore the responsibility of the state to ensure that every citizen has adequate and decent housing. But what exactly does “adequate” mean? Architect Tatiana Bilbao addresses this very question. She places people at the centre, integrates the social perspective into the discourse and sees the role of architecture among other things as democratising beauty. We met her and spoke to her about her work, architecture, structures in space, the symbolic dimension of light and the metropolis of Mexico City. Get to know more about her here or read the article entitled “Social Perspective” in our new magazine F_03.

The making of Mexico City: "As a coda, SMA’s work itself could be seen as a synecdoche of the city. It has woven through the urban form for almost 100 years as it has evolved into one of today’s archetypal mega-cities. Over that period SMA have evolved from sophisticated modernist architects to imaginative designers and developers, intimately interested in the commercial, social, cultural and religious life of the city where they are based."

"If humans are imperfect beings, the architecture we make should reflect that imperfection, those details, those vestiges of irregularities that give it character and turn it into a craft." Ángel Bolaños Méndez, alumnus of the course in Architecture for Humanity, had the opportunity to interview José Selgas and Lucia Cano, founders of selgascano, architectural office based in Madrid. ✏️Read the article on the Students’ Blog: https://lnkd.in/dE7v5z_N #yac #yacademy #studentsblog

BEHIND THE FORMS X SPATIAL METAPHOR Curators | Guoqing Yi, Jiaxun Xu @jiaxunxu_ Date | 09/18 - 10/20 2023 Venue | North Gallery @northgalleryscut, Building No.27, North Campus of SCUT, 381 Wushan Road, Tianhe District, Guangzhou Organizer | School of Architecture, South China University of Technology Co-Organizer | JXY Studio Part I | SPATIAL Part II | METAPHOR The exhibition presents a variety of investigative explorations that attempt to elucidate the duality of architecture from different angles. These open examples particularly focus on the broader and more diverse spatiality within architecture, taking architecture as the basis while not limited to it, generating forms while not constraining them, which attempt to propose possible methods, modes, and perspectives of thinking. Such creative explorations emphasizing spatiality without relying on materiality are aimed at unfolding the logical dimensions. #JXYStudio #culture #art #architecture #exhibition https://lnkd.in/ebWHEz2R
