The publication, edited by Barcelona City Council, offers a multifaceted look at the role of architecture in today's society. Through the section titled Observatori Arquitectures per a la vida, various professionals in the field debate the need to link urban planning with the real needs of citizens.
The content covers topics such as housing management, the fight against gentrification, the flexibility of residential spaces, and the legal responsibilities of architects. It also includes a reflection on the evolution of architectural awards in the city over the last 125 years.
Issue 139 of the magazine is complemented by the photographic work Barcelona en construcció, which documents various ongoing projects in the Catalan capital, and a report on the conversion of party walls into facades, one of the legacies planned for the international event.
