Under the title “More Living, More Humanizing,” the 14th Spanish Biennial of Architecture and Urbanism (BEAU) presented the winning projects of its latest edition today, Thursday the 19th, in Santander. This exhibition, housed in a temporary pavilion in Santander's Pereda Gardens, showcases the works selected in the categories of Panorama of Works, 2nd Research Exhibition, and 7th Thesis Projects Exhibition.
Defined as "a space for reflection and for highlighting architectural practices," this edition was directed by Sara de Giles and José Morales, while the general coordination of biennials (BEAU, BIAU, and Spain's participation in the Venice Biennale) is led by Francisco Mangado.
The jury of this edition of the BEAU recognized a total of 85 projects, 23 of which are completed works. In this edition, the jury awarded 23 national and international architectural works in the Panorama of Works section.
