Open House BCN 2020 aims to reaffirm the concept of the 15-minute city, where basic services can be accessed within 15 minutes of walking distance. This concept has gained strength during the pandemic and is becoming increasingly present in the conceptualization of new urban ideas.

This year, the focus was on a healthy city, a more humane, fair, and sustainable space. For this reason, in our ON-A smart office, we explained how we organize our creative and multidisciplinary team combining disciplines such as research in parametric architecture, BIM tools for management and bio construction, or the investigation of new materials and construction systems.

On the same day, we organized a raffle among all visitors of the book ON-A: emotion architecture. Works & Projects. @twistsandshouts was the lucky one, congratulations!

We discussed our most advanced proposals such as the Nou Parc, a green blanket to cover the Camp Nou stadium in Barcelona, ​​the Llano Amarillo park in Algeciras, the Taichung Gateway Park in Taiwan, the project for the Tarragona 2017 Mediterranean Games, or the planning of a city ​​of the future – NEOM Mega City.

On-A’s office has 400 m² divided into four sections. An exhibition space dedicated to explaining in a video the 17 years of our trajectory, an area dedicated to 3D printing to develop the most innovative solutions, an area designed in stands where events are held to share knowledge, and an inner courtyard where new technologies such as urban green construction are incorporated.

Thank you for having attended!
