Happy New Year 2026.
In this SPOT episode, I invite you on a journey.
A journey through doubt, noise, labels, and overly simplistic oppositions.
A journey through architecture, its history, its struggles, and its hopes.
2025 saw nearly 40 unique voices pass through Com d'Archi: architects, thinkers, practitioners, builders, scenographers, designers, heritage restorers, climate, city, and territorial actors.
In 2026, the adventure continues—but with one central question:
How can we build in a world that loves to symbolically destroy in order to exist?
In this episode, we talk about:
– transmission and strata,
– modernity and heritage,
– climate and responsibility,
– heritage and creation,
– dogmas and freedom of thought,
– youth, materiality, repair,
– and above all: what “building” really means.
An episode for those who like to:
take their time,
think without slogans,
reject binary thinking,
embrace complexity.
To cross the nebula is to accept that we cannot see everything clearly,
but to continue searching for the light nonetheless.
