Concéntrico
Logroño International Festival of Architecture and Design
Concéntrico 10
25 April – 1 May 2024
Concéntrico is the Logroño (Spain) International Festival of Architecture and Design that annually proposes to reflect on the urban environment and the city. The Festival invites visitors to tour the city through installations, exhibitions, meetings, activities and performances that create a connection between the venues, squares, streets, courtyards and hidden spaces that usually go unnoticed in their daily lives.
Since 2015, the nine editions of the festival have brought together more than 100 urban interventions created by teams of national and international architects and designers experimenting with new fields of environmental design. In this way, a dialogue is established between the city, heritage and contemporary architecture that activates citizens’ reflection on these spaces.
After 10 years of experience, Concéntrico proposes to take on new challenges: it plans to expand its methodologies to new spaces based on the learning acquired in community processes in Logroño since 2015. Concéntrico opens two calls for proposals to incorporate the local community and expand its scope in alliance with new cities that deepen the research and innovation of the project. Proposals, with national and international scope, can be submitted until 31 July 2024.
