This is a proposal that addresses architecture from its social impact, through its various disciplines, to offer new reflections and ways to practice a profession that evolves “to adapt to all the dimensions and needs of an ever-changing society.”
For the first time, Spain called for a public competition to oversee its pavilion and the winning initiative turned out to be suspicion, from a team made up of Canarian architects Sofia Pinheiro, Domingo J. Gonzalez, André Guizdala, and Fernando Herrera.
