Architecture Exhibition that shows 40 re-activating projects of the city, by its situation, typology and program (20 Barcelona + 20 Wallonie-Bruxelles).

The project stems from the shared connection between Barcelona and other European cities with consolidated architectural traditions; it takes the shape of a bi-directional exhibition, understood as a meeting place with the core idea of sharing knowledge, debating the different proposals of cities, and understanding the architectural culture of each territory.

This fifth edition, connecting Barcelona with Wallonie-Bruxelles, works on the idea of ​​reactivating projects of the city, understanding the architecture of public facilities (cultural, educational, mixed-use, public spaces ...) as social cohesive devices of special importance in areas with a certain degree of urban decay. Whether it is through new buildings in some cases, or recovering pre-existing buildings in others, this theme attracts a great deal of attention in the two cities, given their architectural tradition in urban regeneration, creating a shared space for reflection.
