Concéntrico

A Chilean ‘poor circus’ —light, foldable and built from industrial plastic sheeting— relocated to a vacant lot in Logroño becomes a fragile interior full of air and colour, where six screens project a 1963 film, reclaiming the circus as a matrix of ephemeral architecture.

A minimal reading of the landscape where delimiting a line, marking a furrow and laying a light stratigraphic mesh among the vines becomes a way of looking at the earth —a field of attention rooting wine culture, geological time and an entropic gaze.

The Arch of San Bernabé is dressed in a tailored red skirt —inspired by the dancers of La Roja— gathered by day to let passers-by through and unfurled at night, turning the monument into an urban ornament that celebrates Logroño’s festive identity.

In response to rising urban heat, an artificial landscape of timber boards and nebulised water generates shade and evaporative cooling in the heart of the city: a modular, reversible device that lowers the perceived temperature and makes climate comfort a collective matter.

A circular pavilion built from rammed earth and reused wine barrels explores earth construction as a low-emission building system. The project tests rammed earth as a prefabricated, modular, and reversible architecture.

Built from pieces of a former electrical substation, Transtation is a prototype of circular infrastructure: it generates electricity from passengers’ organic waste and stores renewable surpluses in water tanks beneath the tracks, closing a cycle of matter and energy toward a post-fossil future.

On a concrete court beside the Ebro, a dense fog system recreates an artificial water landscape across which small boats drift toward a pavilion-bar: Summer Shapes Memories revisits the collective memory of La Playa del Ebro and its myths, inviting visitors to write and send a summer memory.

Without placing an object, the proposal works with the void of the Plaza del Ayuntamiento: the grid of Moneo’s building extends into a light network of steel stakes that turns the void into a habitable structure, completed by the movement of pedestrians.

In front of the Co-Cathedral, a sand dune bordered by a wall echoing Logroño’s old fortifications turns the Plaza del Mercado into an urban beach for a week; on St John’s Eve, a wooden mast holding the citizens’ wishes becomes the ritual base of the fire.

Around a shed and a shared table, a small civic garden of drought-resistant plants invites visitors to sit, talk and exchange seeds; its tiles, designed in community workshops, bring the domestic space of the garden into the public realm as a place of cultivation, care and gathering.

A drought-resistant garden combines with a space for the collective experience of sleep: a plant refuge against the urban heat island that, in a nocturnal session inspired by Greco-Roman rituals and Surrealism, invites visitors to share and reinterpret their dreams as a shared encounter.

Timber Architectures wrapped in jute, coconut mesh and insulating membranes generate distinct microclimates of light, shade, air and temperature: a sequence of atmospheres that invites visitors to experience climate as a spatial, shared condition, turning the city into an ephemeral refuge for pausing and resting.

From an elementary gesture —a wall and a ball—, Frontones danzantes turns the Revellín car park into a sporting landscape: three mobile pelota walls of timber and metal move and reconfigure throughout the festival, reviving the spirit of Basque pelota and play as a form of appropriation of public space.

Who plays and who stays on the sidelines? The project develops an educational programme with La Rioja schools that redesigns sports fields and their rules, culminating in a Multiform tournament —a team game with transformable uniforms and a three-sided field— rethinking coexistence through sport.

Taking the Puente de Hierro and its closeness to the Ebro as a starting point, Future Firm proposes a light, temporary intervention that intensifies the bridge’s role as a place of connection, dwelling and observation of the river, making the relationship between the city and its riverine landscape more permeable.

Inspired by the culture of the kiosk, a circular pavilion of interlocking plywood panels —open on every side and dyed with grape pomace— compresses and opens up toward the sky: a simple, demountable and reusable civic architecture for resting, gathering and observing.

A stone architecture for a single visitor —suspended and built from discarded slabs—. Between two daily sound services, Cathedral for One reclaims stone as a bearer of cultural meaning and building as an act that is intimate, public and, from Palestine, also political.

Inspired by the soboty —the wooden galleries of Poland’s rural churches—, Los Sábados suspends a canopy of reclaimed slats between two buildings beside the old tobacco-factory chimney, with benches of stone kerbs. A shelter open to whoever needs it, assembled without a single anchor and designed to leave no trace.

The Glorieta del Doctor Zubía becomes an open-air laboratory honouring the local naturalist: two devices —a kaleidoscope that refracts and amplifies sky, trees and sounds, and a microscope for examining leaves, insects and textures— turn the square into a playful micro-observatory of urban nature.

Drawing on two archetypes —the courtyard and the tent—, Bayn proposes a mobile courtyard with a fabric enclosure that defines space without closing it; travelling between Spain and Saudi Arabia, its central void frames a different element in each place, turning absence into a shifting spatial experience.

A temporary pavilion built from the structure of a scaffold —usually a synonym of restriction— becomes an open, porous space that each day hosts a different action: produce, meet, play, manifest and recirculate. Its timber and fabric surfaces change with use and weather, making change itself an action.

Sounds of Architecture Records brings a recording and a public action to Concéntrico: the production of a vinyl built from the voices and soundscapes of Logroño, and a Listening Session on 20 June that immerses the audience, for twenty minutes, in a sonic portrait of Beirut.

A geometric trace drawn on the Paseo del Espolón alters the perception of the place and, on 20 June, two hundred citizens and twelve dancers activate it through synchronised walking: a collective choreography that shifts prominence away from the monument toward an identity built in common.

Concéntrico 2026 activities expand the festival as a space for gathering, learning and collective participation in the city from 18 to 23 June in Logroño.
