Concéntrico, in its aim to initiate new formats that respond to urban transformations, presents three calls —Ephemeral Agents, Urban Ecologies and Identity and Fiction— to participate in the festival in Logroño, from June 18 to 23, 2026.

Ephemeral Agents

Having reviewed the submitted proposals and carried out the corresponding deliberations, the jury has decided that the winning project is the one submitted under the motto:

Frontones danzantes by 2050+ (Sara Barbini, Marco Gambarè, Francesca Lantieri, Davide Marcianesi, Livia Mazzocchetti, Ippolito Pestellini Laparelli, Erica Petrillo, Sofia Tapia Buchelli, Massimo Tenan) — Italy

Project statement:
This project proposes an ephemeral infrastructure that turns play into a tool for urban transformation. Based on an elementary gesture —a wall and a ball— the proposal reclaims the collective spirit of Basque pelota and brings it into the contemporary context of Logroño, exploring new ways of activating public space.

The intervention operates within the Revellín parking area, currently defined by its condition as a space of transit, transforming it into a dynamic landscape where architecture and movement intertwine. Where walls are absent, the project introduces four mobile frontons that expand the possibilities of use, incorporating different sports practices such as basketball, football or climbing.

Inspired by a logic of temporality and adaptability, the system is constructed through dry-assembled modular elements, combining wooden panels and mobile metal structures. This configuration allows the devices to be moved and reconfigured, generating different situations throughout the festival and establishing an ongoing dialogue with the surrounding architectures.

The proposal reconsiders the transient nature of the parking area, transforming it into a space for collective encounter, where sport is understood as a cultural act and play as a form of civic appropriation. Architecture ceases to be a static backdrop and becomes a catalyst for relationships, activating public space through the body and shared movement.

Due to the high quality of the submitted proposals, the jury considers 12 projects to be outstanding finalists:

Urban Ecologies

Having reviewed the submitted proposals and carried out the corresponding deliberations, the jury has decided that the winning project is the one submitted under the motto:

:

SHADE, BREEZE, COOLING by noof group (Francisco Reyes, Catalina Portillo, Freddy Acevedo) — Chile

Project statement:
This project directly addresses the increasing thermal vulnerability of public space, proposing an intervention capable of generating specific environmental conditions such as shade, cooling and habitability. In response to rising temperatures and the intensification of heatwaves, the proposal envisions the construction of an artificial landscape that acts upon the urban atmosphere.

Rather than representing nature or simulating a garden, the project assembles structure, material and water to actively modify the surrounding climatic conditions. Through a modular, cost-effective and scalable system, based on dry assembly using standardized elements, wooden panels and a suspended misting water system, it configures a device capable of transforming the experience of space.

The combination of artificial shade and evaporative cooling reduces direct solar radiation and lowers perceived temperature, creating a differentiated atmosphere within the city. The intervention thus shifts the focus from permanent form towards the climatic experience of the body.

Beneath its structure, public space becomes a place for staying, gathering and resting. Rather than offering a definitive solution to urban overheating, the project proposes the possibility of modulating climate through reversible and accessible interventions, activating a shared environmental awareness and positioning comfort as a collective concern.

Due to the high quality of the submitted proposals, the jury considers 12 projects to be outstanding finalists:

Having reviewed the submitted proposals and carried out the corresponding deliberations, the jury has decided that the winning project is the one submitted under the motto:

EL PLANO LATENTE de Dancing on Architecture — Spain

Project statement:
This project proposes an urban fiction on Paseo del Espolón in which the everyday act of walking is transformed into a collective choreography. The intervention does not introduce an autonomous object, but rather a civic ritual that unfolds over time, altering the perception of space and generating a shared expectation.

From the beginning of the festival, a geometric trace drawn on the pavement establishes a latent architecture that exists before being activated, modifying the reading of the site without revealing its purpose. The intervention reaches its full manifestation on June 21, coinciding with the summer solstice.

At that moment, the participation of citizens and dancers activates an urban score guided by sunlight as a temporal reference. Synchronized walking and the movement of small wooden pieces transform the space into a collective organism, where the boundaries between spectator and actor dissolve.

The proposal shifts the focus from the object to shared action, constructing collective identity through synchronized presence. Material, in the form of poplar wood pieces, acts as a record of the process, evolving from a trace on the ground into a central element of the encounter.

EL PLANO LATENTE turns Paseo del Espolón into a stage where body, time and memory intertwine, reaffirming public space as a site of symbolic construction and collective celebration.

Due to the high quality of the submitted proposals, the jury considers 12 projects to be outstanding finalists;
