El próximo día 3 de Noviembre estaremos en Barcelona con motivo del WAF.
Mucho me temo que nuevamente tendremos que metabolizar toda la información que en este festival internacional de arquitectura se va a exponer. Sobre todo cuando venimos de la Bienal de Venecia con los cientos de actividades y Pabellones que nos hizo reducir al máximo la información acumulada ya que el propio material que traemos de vuelta en papel y digital superaba la carga permitida del avión ya que estaba en torno a 30 kg sin incluir los formatos digitales. La propia generosidad de Architectural Record y Architecture Reviewe en invitarnos a participar como Media Partner nos motiva en este reto y esperamos realizar algunos reportajes sobre el evento que esperamos sea de vuestra satisfacción.
La organización nos traslada parte del programa oficial confirmado y os animo a encontrarnos en Barcelona.
The next day, November 3 will be in Barcelona for the WAF.
I fear that once again we will have to metabolize all the information in this international festival of architecture will be exposed. Especially when we come to the Venice Biennale with the hundreds of activities and pavilions that made us to minimize the information accumulated since the material that we bring back into digital paper and exceeded the allowable load of the aircraft as it was around 30 kg not including digital formats. The very generosity of Architectural Record and Architecture Review in inviting us to participate as a Media Partner motivates us in this challenge and hope to make some reports about the event that we hope will be of your satisfaction.
The organization takes us part of the official confirmed, and I encourage you to meet in Barcelona.
