Arquitectura | Oficis

The exhibition "Arquitectura | Oficis" offers an approach to architecture from its material, constructive and cultural dimension, focusing on the dialogue between architecture and craft. The show brings together major studios that share a sensitivity towards materials, processes and execution, among them RCR Arquitectes, B720, Mesura, AIA, Batlle i Roig, Bofill Taller de Arquitectura, Lagranja Design and GCA Architects.Each studio presents a piece or intervention conceived from a real project, produced in collaboration with one or several artisans. These pieces make it possible to understand how specific architectural decisions translate into material, technique and constructive detail.The exhibition combines the presentation of the proposals with documentation of the processes that made them possible, showing the complete journey from idea to materialisation. In this way, it proposes a reading of architecture that goes beyond the formal and highlights the technical knowledge, material intelligence and manual work involved in its development.The exhibition "Arquitectura | Oficis" also arises from the desire to make visible the encounter between architecture and craft as a space of dialogue between two disciplines that have played a fundamental role in our cultural and constructive history, and whose connection we consider essential for the present and future of architecture. Through this exhibition, it seeks to reclaim the value of these synergies as part of our identity and cultural heritage, as well as to encourage new generations of architects and artisans to commit to forms of collaboration based on shared knowledge, experimentation and material excellence.Likewise, the show aims to give visibility to the work of great creators and help place them on the map, generating a context conducive to the recognition of their practices and to the promotion of new collaborations between studios, artisans and sector agents."Arquitectura | Oficis" forms part of a continuing line of work. In a second phase planned for 2027, the pieces will be integrated into built architectural works, thus completing the transition from conceptualisation to real application.The exhibition will be open from its opening day, 8 July, from 18:00 to 21:00. From that date, the exhibition may be visited by appointment for sector professionals until December.
