Epilogue

Strata Incognita

Audiovisual by Grandeza Studio + Locument that invites the public to imagine alternative ways to cultivate the relationship of humans with soils and to unlearn the epistemic assumptions that sustain the hyperextractive relationship with these hidden worlds that are as close as they are strange. “Our designs will be nutrients for the soil or they will not be good designs.”.

Services Pavilion

Installation in the space prior to the toilets that are in the exhibition. The toilets are often described as neutral installations or simple utilitarian infrastructures that meet the universal needs of individuals. But they are controversial spaces that shape the ways in which bodies and communities meet. The toilets are architectures where gender, religion, race, skill, hygiene, health, environmental concerns and economics are defined culturally and materially articulated.

Red Smoke

The new multipurpose Glòries viewpoint room is dressed with the graphic artistic intervention of El Último Grito. The image corresponds to a selection of clouds of anthropogenic origin, that is, clouds “designed” by the human species: clouds of pollution, fires and wars.

Materia Prima

Space for final degree projects (TFG) and final master projects (TFM), in which reflection on materiality is central and critical, of the design schools of Barcelona through an open call for annual selection of projects.
