How do regional traditions, materials, and community values shape architectural practices around the world?
The Spanish Chamber of Commerce is delighted to contribute to the Instituto de Cervantes’ insightful discussion, where architects and professionals from diverse disciplines come together to explore the profound role of thoughtful design in enhancing the lives of those who inhabit these spaces. This panel will examine how regional contexts—such as climate, culture, and community needs—play a significant role in design decisions, from a small local school in Nepal to large-scale urban developments in Mexico City.
