Fill this form to have the opportunity to join the New Generations platform: submissions will be reviewed on a daily-basis, and the most innovative practices will have the chance to be part of the media's coverage and participate in our cultural agenda, including events, research projects, workshops, exhibitions and publications.
New Generations is a European platform that investigates the changes in the architectural profession ever since the economic crisis of 2008. We analyse the most innovative emerging practices at the European level, providing a new space for the exchange of knowledge and confrontation, theory, and production.
Since 2013, we have involved more than 3.000 practices from more than 50 countries in our cultural agenda, such as festivals, exhibitions, open calls, video-interviews, workshops, and experimental formats. We aim to offer a unique space where emerging architects could meet, exchange ideas, get inspired, and collaborate.

A Pavilion for Doing Nothing was a temporary pavilion, set up for only a week, from the 12th to the 19th of November 2022, under the supervision of Guillermo Fernández-Abascal (GFA2).
During this short and intense period, people joined the installation to party, relax, have an ice cream, and do barely nothing under and around its red shades.
The timber pavilion stayed sturdy at the outside of a backyard.
Its rough construction combined reused timber with new glulam posts, fabric with artisan masonry handcrafted from recycled materials, in order to create both intimate conversations and larger gathering spaces.
After the exhibition the Pavilion was disassembled and all materials were labeled and stored. The temporary building is looking for a second home to support a circularity within the industry.
The construction and deconstruction of the temporary building and of some mockups and fragments were a collective DIY process that stimulated conversations between local craftsmanship and architects.
