Installations
With Model, Barcelona Architectures Festival, the city’s streets are turned into a laboratory for architectural experimentation, via five temporary architecture installations located in this first edition’s festival circuit around the Ciutat Vella ring roads: Plaça de Catalunya, the pedestrian area in Sant Antoni, Plaça d’Idrissa Diallo, Passeig de Lluís Companys and Plaça Reial.These installations in public spaces explore the five main themes of this festival’s first edition, each rooted in a city location: Between Classes, Between Cultures, Between Species, Between Generations and Between Materials. The aim of these installations is to transform the urban space into an experimental platform where emerging architectural and design talent can build spaces and devices that help to imagine and discuss the shape of the Barcelona to come.
